Santiago Amorín Calegari (born 9 September 1994) is a Uruguayan footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Sportivo Bella Italia.[1]

Career

[edit]

In his youth, Amorín didn't own a pair of goalkeeper gloves, instead using a pair of fingerless motorcycle gloves he found in his brother's suitcase.[2] He began his senior career with Progreso in 2016, making his league debut on 11 June 2016 in a 1–0 defeat to Canadian Soccer Club.[3] He bounced around several clubs during his early career, joining Central Español in late 2016 and Albion in 2017. He settled with Albion for several seasons before departing the club ahead of the 2020 season, joining Liverpool.[4] Ahead of the 2021 season, Amorín departed Liverpool.[5]

Following his Liverpool stint, Amorín joined Villa Española, but terminated his contract following the 2021 Apertura tournament.[6] He joined Cerrito for the conclusion of the 2021 season.[7]
