Club career

Born in Gregorio de Laferrère, Buenos Aires, Langoni made his debut for Boca Juniors in June 2022.[3] He made an explosive start to his Boca Juniors career, and has been noted for his natural goalscoring ability.[4][5]

On August 2, 2024, the New England Revolution announced the signing of Langoni from Boca Juniors for a club record fee, reportedly in the area of $7 million.[6][7][8] Langoni made his first appearance for the Revolution on August 24, 2024, coming on as a second-half substitute against CF Montréal.[9] He would subsequently score his first goal for his new club 15 minutes later, helping to secure a 5–0 win for the Revolution,[9] and being named to the MLS Team of the Matchday for week 29.[10] Langoni became the first player in Revolution history to score a goal and record an assist in their debut game.[11] Langoni made his home debut on September 7, 2024 against St. Louis City SC, in what would also serve as his home debut at Gillette Stadium.[12][13] He scored the Revolution's first goal of the match, cancelling out the opener from former Revs defender Henry Kessler.[14]
