Tomás Verón Lupi (born 3 September 2000) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a winger for Swiss record-champions Grasshopper on loan from Uruguayan side Racing de Montevideo.[1]

Club career

Verón Lupi is a product of Quilmes' youth system, having signed in 2014 after a stint with Escuelas Crinar.[2][3] He made the move into senior football under the guidance of Marcelo Fuentes, who selected the forward off the bench in a Primera B Nacional fixture with Platense on 30 September 2018.[1][4][5] Five more appearances arrived in the first part of 2018–19, all of which were as a substitute.[1]

On 5 September 2024, two days after his 24th birthday, he traveled to Switzerland to join Grasshopper Club Zürich on loan for the 2024–25 season.[6] He scored his first goal for the Swiss record champions on 7 December 2024, with the opening goal of a 1–1 draw at home against Yverdon-Sport FC.

International career

Verón Lupi has received call-ups from Argentina's U19s; notably scoring in a friendly against Shandong Luneng U21s in April 2018.[7][8] He was also selected to train with Sebastián Beccacece's U20s.[3]
