Piero Martín Hincapié Reyna (born 9 January 2002) is an Ecuadorian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Talleres.[1]

Club career

Hincapié began playing football at the age of seven, initially for local clubs Escuela Refinería, Emelec and Barcelona.[2][3] Aged ten, the defender moved to Guayaquil with Norte América.[3] After a spell with Deportivo Azogues, he joined Independiente del Valle in November 2016.[4] Hincapié was promoted into their first-team in August 2019 for a Serie A match with Mushuc Runa.[1] He was selected to start and played the full duration of a narrow home defeat.[1] In the subsequent 2020 campaign, shortly after winning the U-20 Copa Libertadores, Hincapié made appearances off the bench against Universidad Católica and Macará.[1]

On 20 August 2020, Hincapié switched Ecuador for Argentina after agreeing a five-year contract with Primera División side Talleres; who paid $1,000,000 for 50% of his pass.[5][6]

International career

Hincapié appeared for the Ecuador U15s in 2017.[2] In 2019, Hincapié represented his country as captain at U17 level.[1][3] He played seven times at the South American U-17 Championship in Peru, before featuring four times at the subsequent FIFA U-17 World Cup in Brazil.[1][3]
