Antonio Pacheco d'Agosti (born 11 April 1976) is a Uruguayanfootballmanager and former player who played as aforward.
Pacheco also held anItalian passport. He started his 21-year professional career withPeñarol, appearing in more than 300 official matches for the club. Additionally, he played abroad in Italy,Spain and Argentina.
Born inMontevideo, Pacheco was signed byInter Milan in January 2001 after stellar performances at localPeñarol, with a contract running until 30 June 2005. However, he made only oneSerie A appearance with theItalians when he replacedVladimir Jugovic in the away game atLazio, and served consecutive loans in the following years, with Peñarol but also in Spain, first withEspanyol thenAlbacete, with the latter buying the player permanently afterwards.
In January 2006, as Albacete was now in thesecond division, Pacheco wanted out, and was eventually loaned toAlavés until the end ofthe season. The move was a disaster individually (noLa Liga appearances) and collectively (relegation).
After a brief spell inArgentina withGimnasia La Plata, Pacheco returned in 2007 for a third stint with Peñarol: he scored 12Primera División goals in the2008–09 campaign, including twice in a 2–3 away loss against city rivalsClub Nacional de Football on 24 May 2009, one through apenalty kick.[1]
After reaching the2011 Copa Libertadores final, 35-year-old Pacheco signed withMontevideo Wanderers. In June 2012 he returned to his main club Peñarol, retiring three years later at 39 even though he still received offers to continue.[2]
During seven years, Pacheco gathered 11 appearances forUruguay, scoring three times. His debut came on 12 October 1997, in a 0–0 inArgentina for the1998 FIFA World Cupqualifiers.
Afterwards, Pacheco was summoned for the final squad at the1999 Copa América, playing three matches for the eventual runners-up.[3]
