Luis Salces (born 25 November 1994) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Gimnasia y Esgrima (M).[1]

Career

Salces spent the first five years of his career with Gimnasia y Esgrima (J).[1][2] He was an unused substitute twice during the 2012–13 Primera B Nacional campaign, before featuring seventeen times in the following season; including his debut against Huracán on 17 August 2013.[1] In February 2016, Salces scored for the first time in a match with Almagro.[1] He left at the end of 2017–18, after achieving one hundred and six appearances in all competitions whilst netting four times.[1] On 12 July 2018, Salces joined Superleague Greece side Apollon Smyrnis.[1][3] He suffered an epileptic seizure in training weeks later.[4]

Apollon released Salces in December, prior to his arrival at Central Córdoba back in Argentina on 25 January 2019.[5] He appeared four times off the bench as the club secured promotion from Primera B Nacional to the Primera División via the play-offs.[1] Salces would soon depart though, as the forward agreed terms to remain in the second tier with Gimnasia y Esgrima (M).[6] He made his debut on 18 August in a goalless draw at home to Defensores de Belgrano.[1]
