José Antonio Chamot


DoB: May 17, 1969

PoB: Concepción del Uruguay, Argentina

Position: Defender

Clubs represented: Rosario Central, Pisa, Foggia, Lazio, Atlético Madrid, A.C. Milan, Leganés

Total appearances/goals: 364/5

Total caps: 43/2

Honours:
2 domestic cups

1 UEFA Champion's League

1 Olympic Silver Medal: 96
Confederations Cup runner-up: 95

Highs:
He played most of his games with the Lazio shirt, where he played alongside Nesta, Nedved and Mancini, among others.
His biggest success was undoubtedly the 03 CL, however, he was not in the squad sheet for the final.

Lows:
Winning the silver medal in Atlanta 96 left a taste of disappointment. Argentina fielded a team that was to be very close to their senior team in the coming years (Sensini, Ayala, Zanetti, Almeyda, Simeone, Lopez, Crespo, Ortega) but were still surprised but the hard working and enthusiastic Nigerians as they suffered an infantile goal on the 90th minute mark.
Only managed 7 goals in 18 years for club and country.
