It is incredible to know that despite being born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the Feyenoord
FC player identifies as a Mexican. To unravel the puzzle, let us look at the root of Santiago Gimenez.
Sometimes known as Chaquito or Bebote, Santiago Gimenez’s father, Christian, was born in Resistencia, Chaco, Argentina. However, in July 2013, Giménez became a naturalized Mexican citizen and played for the Mexican club Cruz Azul.
So, as a kid, Santiago Gimenez joined his whole family to migrate to Mexico, where he later grew up and now identifies Mexico city as his home.
Therefore, we can imperatively say that Santiago Gimenez is Mexican. Following next is a photographic depiction of the Argentine-born talent’s family roots.
