Stefano Brundo (born 19 May 1993) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Malaysia Super League side Sri Pahang FC.

Career[edit]

All Boys were the opening club of Brundo's senior career, with the defender making his pro bow for them in September 2014 during a Primera B Nacional draw with Independiente Rivadavia.[1][3] He remained for a total of three seasons in tier two, prior to Brundo departing on loan to newly promoted Comerciantes Unidos of the Peruvian Primera División.[1] Thirty-one appearances followed as they qualified for the 2017 Copa Sudamericana, netting versus Alianza Atlético (2), Real Garcilaso and Universidad San Martín in the process.[1] He returned to All Boys for the rest of 2016–17 but didn't feature due to an admin error.[4]

Brundo joined Atlético de Rafaela on 14 August 2017.[1] His first appearance arrived in a win away to Gimnasia y Esgrima (J) in September, which preceded twenty-two further matches along with two goals.[1] July 2018 saw Brundo go abroad once more by signing for Paraguayan Primera División side 3 de Febrero.[1][5] However, he left the Ciudad del Este club a month later - though did appear in one competitive fixture, against Cerro Porteño at home on 13 August.[1][6] A move to Mendoza with Gimnasia y Esgrima followed in mid-2018, before the defender sealed a return to Atlético de Rafaela a year later.[1][7]

In January 2021, after scoring once (versus ex-club All Boys) in thirteen games back with Rafaela, Brundo headed to Peru with Primera División outfit Carlos Stein.[8] A year later, in January 2022, he returned to his homeland, after signing with Estudiantes de Buenos Aires.[9]

In 2023, he extends his professional football career in Asia by joining five-time league titles Sri Pahang FC in Malaysia Super League.[10] He becomes one of the key players for the club due to his techniques in taking set-pieces and the ability to score goals.[11] He is currently the top goal-scoring defenders in the league with 8 goals in just 13 appearances. His finishing statistic is even higher than the club's main strikers.[12]
