Tiago Asahel Palacios (born 28 March 2001) is an professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Estudiantes.[3] Born in Argentina, he represents Uruguay at international level.

Club career[edit]

Palacios joined the youth system of River Plate in 2011, he remained there for six years before being released in December 2017.[4][5][6] In February 2018, he moved to Platense.[4]

Palacios signed his first professional contract with Platense on 3 January 2020.[7][8] He was soon promoted into Juan Pablo Pumpido's first-team squad, with his senior debut arriving on 6 March during a home Primera Nacional defeat to Alvarado; he replaced Gonzalo Bazán with twenty-six minutes remaining.[3] His first start came four days later in a Copa Argentina round of sixty-four loss to Deportivo Madryn of Torneo Federal A at the Estadio Ciudad de Caseros.[3]

Palacios made ten appearances in the club's promotion-winning campaign of 2020.[3] On 6 February 2021, Platense revealed that they had reached an agreement with Uruguayan Primera División side Montevideo City Torque for the $380,000 transfer of Palacios.[9][10][11] Torque didn't officially announce the acquisition until 22 February, a day after the midfielder had made his Argentine Primera División debut in a victory on the road against Argentinos Juniors.[3][12] He scored his first senior goal in his third top-flight appearance on 6 March versus Godoy Cruz.[3]

International career[edit]
