Iván José Marcone (born 3 June 1990) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Cruz Azul as a central midfielder.

Club career

Born in Sarandí, Marcone was an Arsenal de Sarandí youth graduate. He made his professional debut on 18 October 2008, coming on as a second half substitute in a 3-3 home draw against Vélez Sársfield for the Primera División championship.[1]

Marcone scored his first goal on 17 October 2009, netting the first in a 1-1 home draw against Banfield.[2] He was an important midfield unit in the club's 2012 Clausura winning campaign, being an ever-present figure.

Marcone was later linked to La Liga outfit Celta de Vigo and Major League Soccer's Chicago Fire, but both offers were rejected by Arsenal.[3] In 2013, he was also strongly linked to Independiente, but nothing came of it.[4]

On 9 January 2015 Marcone joined Getafe CF on loan until June, with a buyout clause.[5][6] However, the deal was declared void later in the month.

Marcone played as a holding midfielder as Lanus reached the final of the Copa Sudamerica in 2017. He was linked to a move to La Liga side UD Las Palmas afterwards[7] as well as Club Tijuana in Mexico and Atletico Nacional in Colombia.[8]

In the summer of 2018, Marcone joined Mexican club Cruz Azul.[9][10] On 21 July, Marcone debuted with Cruz Azul against Puebla and played the full 90 minutes.

International Career

Marcone was called up to the Argentine national football team squad in March 2017.[11]
