Football career

[edit]

During his early career, Pochettino played for hometown's Talleres de Córdoba. In 1991, aged 26, he had his first and only abroad experience, with Mexico's Cobras de Ciudad Juárez, returning after one year to his country and joining Deportivo Español, after an unsuccessful trial with Dundee United in Scotland.

In 1994, and during the following four years, Pochettino played one season apiece with second division outfits - the highest professional competition he knew in his country - Club Atlético Douglas Haig, Club Atlético Tigre, Sportivo Italiano and Club Atlético Aldosivi, retiring at the age of 33.
