Club career

Getafe

Born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, Emi finished his formation with Getafe CF. On 30 March 2014, still a junior, he made his senior debuts, starting for the reserves in a 2–1 away win against CD Puerta Bonita for the Segunda División B championship.[3] On 13 April he scored his first goal, the first of a 2–0 win at Peña Sport FC.[4]

Emi started the 2014–15 season still with the B-team and in the third level,[5] notably scoring twice in a 3–0 home success against CF Fuenlabrada.[6] On 5 December 2014 he played his first match as a professional, replacing Ángel Lafita in a 3–0 Copa del Rey win against SD Eibar at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.[7]

Emi made his La Liga debut on 1 February 2015, coming on as a late substitute in a 0–1 away loss against UD Almería.[8] He scored his first goal in the category on 27 September, netting the second in a 3–0 home win against Levante UD.

On 5 July 2016, despite suffering team relegation, Emi signed a new five-year deal with the Madrid outskirts side.[9] On 27 July of the following year, he was loaned to fellow second tier club Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa, for one year.[10]

Norwich City

On 8 June 2018, Emi signed a four-year deal with EFL Championship side Norwich City.[11]

He scored his first goal for Norwich in a 1–0 win over Brentford on 27 October 2018. He continued his fine form that season scoring a thunderbolt against Swansea City, a double against Hull City. He also scored a pivotal goal against QPR, that massively boosted Norwich's title hopes.

He scored a total of 8 League goals in the season, helping Norwich to promotion to the Premier League. Fans voted him into third place in the annual Player of the Season awards.[12]

International career

On 16 September 2014, Emi was called up to the Spain under-19s.[13] On 29 April of the following year, he was called up by Argentina under-20s for 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup,[14] and joined the latter's training camp on 5 May 2015.[15]
