Career

Curuchet's first club was Pueblo Nuevo, prior to a move to Colón.[4] He made his pro debut on 16 May 2010 against Estudiantes, with the forward netting the club's only goal in a 1–4 defeat.[3][5] Curuchet went on to make eighty-four appearances for the club across six seasons, five of which were in the Primera División; taking his goal tally to nine in the process, including six in the 2012–13 season.[3] During 2012–13, he also scored on his Copa Sudamericana bow versus Racing Club in August 2012.[3][6] January 2015 saw Curuchet join Defensa y Justicia on loan.[3] Two appearances came before he returned midway through the year.[3]

Curuchet spent the rest of 2015 with Santamarina in Primera B Nacional.[3] After one goal and twenty-one matches for Santamarina, Curuchet subsequently departed Colón permanently after agreeing a move to Juventud Unida in February 2016.[3][7] A further move in the second tier with Independiente Rivadavia arrived six months later.[3][8] Ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, Curuchet signed for Primera B Metropolitana's Platense.[3] He scored nine goals against nine opponents in his first season, helping Platense win the title to gain promotion to Primera B Nacional.[3]

Personal life

Curuchet's brother, Cristian, also played football professionally.[9]
