Adolfo Julián Gaich (born 26 February 1999) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-forward for Benevento, on loan from CSKA Moscow, and the Argentina national team.[2]

Club career

Gaich had youth spells with Unión Bengolea, Sportivo Chazón, Atenas and Atlético Pascanas, prior to joining San Lorenzo in 2014.[4][5] Four years later, Gaich was promoted into their first-team under Claudio Biaggio, making his professional debut on 27 August 2018 during a draw with Unión Santa Fe; he had previously been an unused substitute in an Argentine Primera División fixture with Lanús and for a Copa Sudamericana game against Nacional.[1][2] Gaich scored his first senior goal in the following September, netting the opener in a 3–2 win over Patronato; which preceded another two appearances later in the Copa Argentina versus Estudiantes.[2]

On 17 July 2020, Gaich said goodbye to San Lorenzo supporters via Fox Sports' 90 Minutos de Fútbol ahead of a potential move to Russian football with CSKA Moscow.[6] On 30 July 2020, San Lorenzo confirmed the transfer.[7] On 5 August 2020, CSKA announced the signing of a 5-year contract.[8] He made his league debut off the bench against Khimki on 8 August, before starting for the first time in a defeat to Zenit Saint Petersburg on 19 August.[2] Gaich's first goal arrived on 22 October in a UEFA Europa League group stage draw away in Austria against Wolfsberger AC.[2][9]

On 29 January 2021, Gaich moved to Serie A club Benevento on loan.[10][11] The deal includes an option to buy.[10]

International career

In 2018, Gaich was selected by the Argentina U20s for the L'Alcúdia International Tournament in Spain.[4] He scored three goals, one in Argentina's group opener with Venezuela and two on the next matchday against Murcia, in five appearances as his nation won the trophy.[12][13][14][15][16][17] In December, Gaich was picked for the 2019 South American U-20 Championship.[18] Another U20 call-up came in May 2019 as Fernando Batista called him up to his 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup squad.[19] He subsequently scored goals in Poland against South Africa, Portugal and Mali.[2] In the following months, Gaich made the U23s' squad for the 2019 Pan American Games.[20]

At the Pan American Games in Peru, Gaich netted twice on his debut in a 2–3 win over Ecuador; also assisting the other goal.[21] Further goals occurred versus Mexico and Panama, which preceded two in the semi-finals against Uruguay.[22][23] Argentina won the final against Honduras, which gave Gaich a goal medal.[24][25] Gaich was, soon after, selected by Lionel Scaloni's seniors for September friendlies with Chile and Mexico.[26][27] He made his full international bow, aged twenty, in a 4–0 victory over Mexico at the Alamodome on 10 September, having remained on the bench against Chile days prior.[28]

Personal life

Born in Argentina, Gaich is of German descent.[29]
