In which club did paredes play? Leandro Paredes: biography, career and personal life
7 minutes before the end of the meeting. On November 3, 2012, in a match with San Lorenzo, the midfielder scored the first goal in his professional career. Later in the course of this match, Paredes also scored the second goal, realizing the transfer of Guillermo Fernandez. In his youth, Leo preferred to play closer to the attack, also because one of his favorite players was Juan Roman Riquelme. From Boca fans, Paredes was nicknamed "The Heir": they saw the young midfielder as a replacement for the veteran Riquelme. In 2011, Paredes formally became the champion of Argentina, but until the second half of 2012, he appeared on the field only sporadically. In just over three years at Boca, he played only 28 matches (five goals), but managed to attract the attention of Roma. The Romans could not immediately buy the Argentine, as they had exhausted the quota for football players from non-EU countries, so in January 2014 they made a deal in transit through Chievo.
As part of Boca, the footballer became the champion of Argentina and the owner of the country's cup.
Rent in Chievo
For the "flying donkeys", the Argentine played only once: on May 4, during the match with Torino, he replaced Cyril Tero on the field.
"Roma"
In July 2014, the midfielder moved on loan to Roma for a period of 18 months with the right to buy a contract. He scored the first goal against Cagliari in the 22nd round of the 2014/15 season. Despite the small amount of time spent on the field for the Yellow-Reds (423 minutes), Roma bought the contract from Boca Juniors for 4.5 million euros.
Rent in "Empoli"
On August 26, 2015, he was loaned to Empoli for one season. He scored his first goal in the match against Udinese. The Tuscan club had a difficult time: Main coach Maurizio Sarri went on promotion, important players left the team with him - Daniele Rugani, Elseid Hyusay, Mirko Valdifiori. New coach Empoli Marco Giampaolo did not radically change the system of the game: the Tuscans still acted with a diamond in the center of the field. One of the main figures in this formation was Paredes. Leandro went deep for the first time in his career - there the Argentine was supposed to replace Valdifiori, acting as a deep point guard.
At the new position, Paredes adapted very quickly. Attacking past allowed Leo without special problems get out of pressure through dribbling, and thanks to the excellent vision of the field, Paredes became one of the leaders in Serie A in terms of the number of passes in the final third. In the 2015/16 season, Paredes became the main player in his team for the first time in his career (33 matches, two goals) and returned to Rome.
Return to Roma
"Zenith"
On July 1, 2017, he signed a contract with the Russian Zenit St. Petersburg, the agreement was designed for 4 years. The transfer amount is 23 million euros, Roma could also receive up to four million more as bonuses for successful performances. He made his debut in the match against the club "SKA-Khabarovsk" in the first round of the season

An excerpt characterizing Paredes, Leandro
- What is the matter with you, my angel, are you sick? asked the Count. Natasha was silent.“Yes, she is sick,” she answered.
To the count's restless questions about why she was so dead and whether something had happened to her fiancé, she assured him that it was nothing and asked him not to worry. Marya Dmitrievna confirmed Natasha's assurances to the count that nothing had happened. The count, judging by the imaginary illness, by the disorder of his daughter, by the embarrassed faces of Sonya and Marya Dmitrievna, clearly saw that something must have happened in his absence: but he was so afraid to think that something shameful had happened to his beloved daughter, he he loved his cheerful calmness so much that he avoided questioning and kept trying to assure himself that there was nothing special and only grieved over the fact that, on the occasion of her illness, their departure to the country was being postponed.
From the day his wife arrived in Moscow, Pierre was going to go somewhere, just so as not to be with her. Shortly after the arrival of the Rostovs in Moscow, the impression that Natasha made on him made him hurry to fulfill his intention. He went to Tver to the widow of Iosif Alekseevich, who had long promised to give him the papers of the deceased.
When Pierre returned to Moscow, he received a letter from Marya Dmitrievna, who called him to her on a very important matter concerning Andrei Bolkonsky and his bride. Pierre avoided Natasha. It seemed to him that he had a stronger feeling for her than that which a married man should have for his friend's fiancee. And some kind of fate constantly brought him together with her.
"What happened? And what do they care about me? he thought as he dressed to go to Marya Dmitrievna's. Prince Andrei would have come as soon as possible and would have married her!” Pierre thought on his way to Akhrosimova.
On Tverskoy Boulevard someone called out to him.
- Pierre! Have you arrived long time ago? a familiar voice called out to him. Pierre raised his head. In a double sleigh, on two gray trotters throwing snow at the heads of the sleigh, Anatole flashed by with his constant comrade Makarin. Anatole sat straight, in the classic pose of military dandies, wrapping the bottom of his face with a beaver collar and bending his head slightly. His face was ruddy and fresh, his hat with a white plume was put on sideways, revealing his curled, oiled and finely snowed hair.
“And right, here is a real sage! thought Pierre, he sees nothing further than a real moment of pleasure, nothing disturbs him, and therefore he is always cheerful, contented and calm. What would I give to be like him!” Pierre thought enviously.
In the hall, Akhrosimova, the footman, taking off his fur coat from Pierre, said that Marya Dmitrievna was asked to go to her bedroom.
Opening the door to the hall, Pierre saw Natasha sitting by the window with a thin, pale and angry face. She looked back at him, frowned, and with an expression of cold dignity went out of the room.
- What's happened? asked Pierre, going in to Marya Dmitrievna.
“Good deeds,” answered Marya Dmitrievna, “I have lived in the world for fifty-eight years, I have never seen such shame. - And taking Pierre's word of honor to remain silent about everything that he learns, Marya Dmitrievna informed him that Natasha had refused her fiancé without the knowledge of her parents, that the reason for this refusal was Anatole Kuragin, with whom her wife Pierre had taken, and with whom she wanted to run away in the absence of his father, in order to secretly marry.
Pierre, raising his shoulders and opening his mouth, listened to what Marya Dmitrievna was telling him, not believing his ears. To the bride of Prince Andrei, so much loved, this formerly sweet Natasha Rostova, to exchange Bolkonsky for the fool Anatole, already married (Pierre knew the secret of his marriage), and fall in love with him so much as to agree to run away with him! - This Pierre could not understand and could not imagine.
The sweet impression of Natasha, whom he had known since childhood, could not unite in his soul with a new idea of her baseness, stupidity and cruelty. He remembered his wife. “They are all the same,” he said to himself, thinking that he was not the only one who had the sad fate of being associated with a nasty woman. But he still felt sorry for Prince Andrei to tears, it was a pity for his pride. And the more he felt sorry for his friend, the more contempt and even disgust he thought about this Natasha, with such an expression of cold dignity, who now passed him along the hall. He did not know that Natasha's soul was filled with despair, shame, humiliation, and that it was not her fault that her face inadvertently expressed calm dignity and severity.

Club career of Leandro Paredes
early years
Born in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, like other boys from childhood, he played with the ball in the yard, and then ended up in one of the many schools in the football capital of Argentina. Paredes' choice fell on Boca Juniors, he was in this team from the age of eight, and at 16 he was enrolled in the main team and even managed to play a couple of matches in the national championship. The player's debut took place on November 6, 2010 in a duel with Argentinos Juniors. Paredes spent 7 minutes on the field. Before reaching adulthood, he spent a few minutes on the field. However, he ended up on the Torneo Apertura winning list in 2011.
Since 2012, Paredes has been at the heart of Boka. On November 3, he scored his first goal of his professional career, hitting the San Lorenzo goal. In the same match, he scored the second goal. From the fans of his team, Paredes received the nickname "The Heir": they saw in the young midfielder a replacement for the veteran Riquelme, who at that time was ending his outstanding career in his home team.
Having won the country's cup with Boca, Paredes fell into the sphere of interests of European clubs. Since he has not yet shown anything outstanding at the senior level, the only club that decided to sign him was Roma. And it was not all smooth sailing there either: the Wolves had exhausted the limit on players from countries outside the Euro zone. Because of this, Chievo became the official tenant of the player, in which he spent his first months in European football, having played in only one Serie A match: on May 4, during the match with Torino, he replaced Cyril Tero on the field.
"Roma"
In July 2014, Roma managed to complete a full-fledged loan of the player: for 18 months with the option of a subsequent purchase. In this team, Paredes also did not get much playing practice (423 minutes for the entire season). However, the club decided to buy the player, paying Boke 4.5 million euros.
Empoli
In the final days of the 2015 summer transfer window, Paredes moved on loan to Empoli. On September 13, he spent 19 minutes in the match against Napoli, on September 19 he played for 29 minutes and scored winning goal on the road against Udinese. Leandro came to court in the Tuscan club, dismantled after the departure of Maurizio Sarri and a number of key players. In the second half of the season, Empoli scored a number of home victories and managed to stay in the elite division. Paredes played 33 matches out of 38 possible, scoring 2 goals. In this team, he first tried himself in the position of a defensive midfielder, replacing the experienced Mirko Valdifiori (who also left the team). Since February, the first information about interest in Paredes from the leading European clubs: City, Barcelona, Chelsea, Leicester and Liverpool began to leak into the Italian media.
Interest of Zenit and another season in Rome
On June 28, it became known for the first time that Paredes could move to Zenit. Even the amount of the transfer was called - 15 million euros. In July, St. Petersburg increased the offer to 20 million and Roma allegedly accepted the offer. However, very soon the agent and the player himself made it clear that there would be no transition:
“I can say with confidence that Paredes will not be at Zenit, he will not go there. Was there a specific proposal for it from Zenit? No comments. Leandro remains a Roma player
Before the closure of the TO, several other clubs, including Milan and Liverpool, allegedly made their offers for the Argentine. However, as promised by the agent, Paredes remained in a team that was about to impose real competition on Juventus in the fight for the title. True, the season for the Romans began in mid-August with qualifying matches Champions League. Roma lost at home to Porto 0-3, and Paredes was substituted in the 42nd minute of the meeting. Then he also got injured, because of which he was able to gain a foothold in the base only by the end of November. On October 23, he scored his first goal - against Palermo. In the second half of the season, Paredes became less likely to get into the starting line-up, and in total he played in 27 matches, 12 times as a substitute.
"Zenith"
By the end of the 2016/17 season, it was clear that Leandro would not be an important Roma player under Di Francesco. And there were not so many applicants for it. Rumors linked him to Atlético and Liverpool, but there were no concrete offers. At that moment, Zenit loomed on the horizon again. The St. Petersburg club wanted to pull off a double deal, laying out 50 million euros for Paredes and Manolas. Roma asked for 80 million euros. Protracted negotiations began. At a certain point, it seemed that Manolas had already moved to Zenit, but Paredes did not want to go to Russia. But by the end of June, everything changed: Paredes successfully passed a medical examination and officially became a Zenit player on July 1. The transfer amount is 23 million euros + 4 million in bonuses for successful performances. But Manolas remained in Italy.
He made his debut in the RFPL match against SKA-Khabarovsk in the 1st round of 2017/18. Paredes became 1 of 4 Argentines who played in this match. On August 13, he scored the first goal for the club against Akhmat. On September 21, in the 1/16 match of the Russian Cup, he scored a goal against Dynamo St. Petersburg (2: 3). By the end of October, it was recognized best player"Zenith". This month, he scored and provided an assist against Anji and scored an assist in the UEL match against Real Sociedad. Interestingly, after his goal against the Makhachkala team, Zenit could not score for five matches, repeating his anti-record in the Russian championship (384 minutes). And it was Paredes who broke this streak by scoring a goal against Tosno in March. On April 2, 2018, in a game with Arsenal, he scored a goal with a direct kick from a corner.
Already in the winter of 2018, Zenit could profitably sell Paredes for 40 million euros. He was claimed by PSG and Liverpool. However, the Argentinean remained with the team for another one and a half seasons. Even after the dismissal of Roberto Mancini, he remained one of the best players on the team. In fact, the Argentine was taken as a defensive midfielder, but in Zenit he was still aimed at attacking, often not finishing up in defense. Because of this, he was regularly criticized by fans. In May 2018, the Argentinean announced that he was choosing between Real Madrid and Juventus. However, in Russia they were sure that the player was simply trying to fill his own worth and justify the salary that he receives in the St. Petersburg club.
“Let's see who is interested in Paredes and who needs him. I have little faith in what our information portals. Yes, let him leave - this is his personal desire. If he doesn't want to be in Zenith, let him leave. While there is little benefit from it. Leandro does not justify the salary he receives. I will choose between Juventus and Real Madrid. Haha! Yes, he should have left.”
That summer, Paredes did not go to the World Cup, and Zenit never received a single concrete offer for him. The player began his second season in the RFPL, which also turned out to be controversial. Semak, who came to the coaching bridge of the “blue-white-blue”, forced the Argentinean to work on the defensive. In August, Zenit defeated Dynamo Minsk (8-1) and Ural from Yekaterinburg (4-1). Paredes scored a goal in each of the matches, and also managed to get a red card in the confrontation with the Dynamo. On October 29, he scored the only goal in the match against Wings and was recognized as the best player of the 12th round. On November 4, he was sent off again - this time in the RFPL match with Anji. In one of the final matches of the first part of the championship, he helped his team beat Rubin, scoring a goal from the penalty spot. This match was the last for Leandro. In total, he played 61 matches for the Russian club, scored 10 goals and gave 15 assists.
PSG
Back in September, it became known that Zenit promised to release Paredes in January. He was claimed by Italian clubs (Milan, Juventus, Inter) and several unnamed representatives of other leagues. However, in January, the struggle for the player unfolded between Chelsea and PSG. The clubs alternately increased their stakes, reaching up to 47 million euros. The final offer was made by the Parisians, while Chelsea focused on signing Higuain.
On January 25, Paredes underwent a medical for a move to the Parisian club. However, the deal was concluded only on the 29th, as at the last moment the management of PSG decided to revise the terms of the deal and reduce the agent's bonus payments to 7 million euros. The Parisians concluded with the 24-year-old Argentinean
“I am proud to be at PSG. After my experience in Italy and Russia, I had a fantastic opportunity to discover new football and put on the uniform of one of the most prestigious clubs in the world. We all know what the highest level there are PSG players and coaches. I share the ambitions of the club and will give my all to live up to PSG's expectations. I look forward to the moment when I can plunge into the atmosphere of the Parc des Princes, where football is loved as passionately as in Argentina"
– the Argentinean commented on his transfer.
In Paris, Paredes came to replace Andrien Rabiot, who revolted and was sent to the second team. On February 3, the player made his debut in the Ligue 1 match against Lyon, replacing Kimpembe. The Parisians lost for the first time in the season, 1-2. On February 6, he played 120 minutes of the cup match against Villefranche, and on 12 he made his debut in the Champions League match against Manchester United. The next two matches in Ligue 1, Paredes played from the first to the last minute, and the Parisians won them with a total score of 4-0.
International career of Leandro Paredes
At the international level, he played for the youth and youth teams of Argentina. Since 2017, he has been called to the main team. On his debut against Singapore, he scored a goal and provided an assist. In June 2017, he helped his team beat Brazil in the Superclasico de las Americas mini-tournament. On October 11, 2017, he played his first official match - against Ecuador as part of the qualification for the 2018 World Cup. I didn't go to the tournament.

The young Argentine midfielder Leandro Paredes is familiar to many fans of football, especially Russian. After all, he has been defending the colors of St. Petersburg Zenit for a whole year. During his career, he changed several clubs, and in each he managed to prove himself. However, this can be discussed in a little more detail.
early years
At the age of six, Leandro Paredes entered football school at the Argentine club Boca Juniors, where he then played until 2014.
In 2010, he moved from the youth team to the main team. In November, the 6th, he made his debut. It was a game against Argentinos Juniors. The young man came on as a substitute for Lucas Vyatri 7 minutes before the end of the match.
Two years later, the young midfielder scored his first goal. Then, in the same match against FC San Lorenzo, he also sent the second ball into the opponents' goal.
Interestingly, at the beginning of his career, the football player acted closer to the attack. Largely because he looked up to Juan Roman Riquelme - his favorite player. By the way, Leandro Paredes was nicknamed "The Heir" for this very reason. Many saw him as a replacement for Riquelme.
However, the young man did not play often. In almost four years in the first team, he played only 28 matches and scored 5 goals. But they managed to notice him. Leandro received an offer from Roma, but the deal did not take place immediately - the Romans had exhausted their quota for the purchase of players who did not have an EU passport. However, the Italian club decided not to give up. They made the deal in transit through FC Chievo.
Career at Roma
Continuing to consider the biography of Leandro Paredes, it should be noted that even though he was redeemed by the Roman team in fact, he still played in Chievo once. He was released to replace Cyril Tero in the match against Torino.
However, already in July 2014, he went to Rome for a year and a half with the right to buy the contract. He sent his first goal against FC Cagliari.
In total, footballer Leandro Paredes played 27 matches for the Yellow-Reds (423 minutes in total) and scored three goals. Despite the fact that he spent little time on the field, Roma bought the contract from Boca Juniors for an amount of 4,500,000 euros.
Move to Empoli
In 2015, Leandro was loaned for one season by another Italian club. He joined Empoli on 26 August. In one year, he played 33 matches and scored 2 goals (the first in the game against Udinese).
The team then experienced a difficult time. Together with the head coach, the most important players left the club - Valdifiori, Hyusai, Rugani. The team was led by Marco Giampaolo, and he did not change the system of the game.
It affected Paredes' career in the best way. For the first time, he went into the depths of the central "rhombus", starting to perform the functions of point guard.
He quickly adapted to his new position. Since he was an attacker in the past, he had no problem getting out of pressure with the help of dribbling. And a great vision of the field allowed him to become the leader of Serie A in terms of the number of passes. In that season, Leandro Paredes became the main player in the squad, but the loan period came to an end and he had to return to Rome.
Back to Roma
Leandro returned to the field in the Champions League match, in which his team competed with Porto. He continued to impress with his game, and in March 2017 he was already perceived by everyone as a full-time standards performer in the Roman club.
Largely thanks to him, as well as the leadership of Marco Giampaolo, the Romans became the main sensation of the first half of Serie A. Leandro played the role of a playmaker in front of the defense.
He fit into the 4-3-1-2 scheme successfully. Moreover, it was then that he was able to realize all his skills to the fullest. But Paredes has a lot of them: he perfectly fulfills set pieces, controls the ball well, gives excellent medium passes, and sees the field perfectly.
Moving to Russia
In the summer of 2017, it became known that Zenit St. Petersburg bought a talented midfielder. The agreement is for four years. Russian club paid 23 million euros for it! In addition, the Romans can still be paid 4 million for the player's successful performances.
In "Zenith" Leandro Paredes enters the field often. He has already played 33 matches and scored 5 goals. It is not surprising that already in October 2017 he was awarded the title the best football player month.
I must say that the Argentine midfielder scores interesting. What is worth only a goal in the match against Arsenal, when he sent the ball into the opponent's goal with a direct corner kick! There are sure to be many more such spectacular moments ahead.
In one of his interviews, Leandro said that at first he was even a little scared to move to Russia. But, as he himself assures, it turned out to be vain experiences. Yes, the Argentinean adapted to the Russian language with difficulty, but the player received great respect from the fans and teammates, which outweighed this small minus.
Paredes assures that he likes life in Russia. And the fact that he plays strong team, allows him to get even more pleasure.
What can be said about the personal life of Leandro Paredes? The Argentine midfielder is married to Camille Galante, with whom he has two children - a son and a daughter. Interestingly, they have been in a relationship for more than 7 years, but they got married quite recently - at the end of 2017.
The Argentine made an offer in St. Petersburg. By the way, in one of his interviews, he said that Camilla knows much more about Russia than he does. Young people played a wedding in Buenos Aires - it was a very modest ceremony, judging by the photographs. Now the whole Paredes family lives happily in St. Petersburg.
Leandro is not going to leave Zenit - he says that he considers it his task to improve the club's performance. In addition, the St. Petersburg club really gives him a lot of playing time, which is very important for a football player.
