Julián Malatini (born 31 May 2001) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-back or right-back for Werder Bremen.[2]

Club career

Malatini started out with Unión Deportiva de General Cabrera at the age of five, prior to joining Ateneo Vecinos.[3][4][5] He left at the end of 2017 to sign for Talleres, having impressed over a trial period.[3] He made his reserves debut in 2019 against Racing Club, under the guidance of manager Diego Torrentes.[3] He was promoted into their first-team squad towards the end of 2020 under manager Alexander Medina, as the right-back featured in a number of friendlies before the start of the 2020 Copa de la Liga Profesional; he didn't appear in that aforementioned competition, though did make the substitute's bench on six occasions.[2][6][7]

After again going unused three times in the subsequent 2021 Copa de la Liga, Malatini's senior debut did arrive on 6 March 2021 during a 1–1 draw away to Sarmiento; he replaced Nahuel Tenaglia after sixty-six minutes.[6]

On 3 January 2023, Malatini joined Defensa y Justicia on loan with an option to make the move permanent.[8] In December 2023, the club announced that they had exercised their right to purchase, the player signing a three-year contract.[9]

On 16 January 2024, Malatini signed for Bundesliga club Werder Bremen.[10] The transfer fee was reported as €2 million.[11] On 27 January, Malatini scored on his debut for Werder Bremen, getting the last goal in a 3–1 win against SC Freiburg in the third minute of injury time, two minutes after having been substituted on.[12]

International career

In 2019, Malatini was selected on the preliminary squad list for the Argentina U18s' trip to Spain for the COTIF Tournament; though didn't make the final cut.[3][13] He had already received a call-up from the U18s a year prior.[14] December 2020 saw him receive a call to train with the U20s; just over a week after he had signed his first professional contract with Talleres.[15][16][17]
