Pablo Agustín Palacio (born 18 May 2000) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Chilean club Unión de Santa Fe.[2]

Career

Palacio's career began with local club Centros de Actividades Infantiles, which preceded a move to Independiente Rivadavia.[1][2] He made his professional bow on 9 February 2019 versus Chacarita Juniors, with the midfielder appearing for sixty-four minutes of a Primera B Nacional away win.[2][3][4]

On 21 August 2020, Palacio moved to Unión de Santa Fe on loan for 18-months for a fee around 950 thousand pesos, with a purchase option of 150 thousand dollars for 50% of his pass.[5] However, he wasn't able to convince the club and didn't manage to play a single game for Unión, why he returned to Independiente Rivadavia ahead of the 2021 season. After a few games in the 2021 season for Rivadavia, Unión decided to bet on him anyway, why they bought the player free from Rivadavia for a fee of around 4 million pesos on 28 April 2021. However, he would continue to play for Rivadavia on loan for the 2021 season.[6] At the end of the year, the loan deal was extended for one further year.[7]

In 2024, he was loaned out to Chilean club Palestino on a one-year deal with an option to buy.[8]
