INFO:
Diego Castagno Suárez is an Argentine former footballer who played as a defensive midfielder. Born in Rosario, Argentina (10/10/1972), Castagno Suárez started his career at Newell's Old Boys in 1992, where he scored 4 goals in 53 games between 1992 and 1995. After leaving his boyhood club, Diego ended up at Deportivo Español, where a gray incident marked his career. During a match between Depor and Independiente, Castagno Suárez went into a collision with the red player Daniel Arzeno, leaving him with an exposed fracture of tibia and fibula. After that match, Castagno Suárez was left aside by the Bajo Flores team, and with no minutes nor chances in the first team, the only club that fought for his signing was Colón de Santa Fe. For Colón, Diego Castagno Suárez played 173 games and scored 14 goals, leaving a big mark in the sabalero. In 2002, Castagno Suárez signed for C.A. Independiente, where he would play for two seasons, being a vital part of the team that won the 2002 Clausura, the last national title for the Red Devils. Diego didn't miss a single game in the title-winning campaign and was considered the silent pillar of the team. In 2004 he joined Estudiantes, where he would play only 15 games, and ended up retiring the following year while wearing the Talleres (Cba.) shirt, aged 34. Castagno Suárez was a leader on the field. With simple movements, without many spotlights, and with good deployment and concentration, it could be said that he was a basic and simple player. Although when he was at Newell's he was a little more technical, during his last years at Colón and Independiente, he no longer had much technique or contact with the ball, but he dazzled with his position on the court and with his interpretation of the game.
