Club career

[edit]

River Plate

[edit]

Lux was born inCarcarañá,Santa Fe Province. NicknamedPoroto, he joinedClub Atlético River Plate's youth system aged 16, and made hisPrimera División debut in 2001. Shortly after, he became first choice.[2]

In the2006Apertura, Lux lost his job to emergent talentJuan Pablo Carrizo[3] and, a few months after, was cut from the squad by coachDaniel Passarella.[4] In the beginning of the year he also lost his brother, who committed suicide.[5]

Mallorca

[edit]

Lux signed a four-year deal withRCD Mallorca for2007–08,[6] as a backup to youth graduateMiguel Ángel Moyá, but benefitted from an injury to the latter to appear in tenLa Liga matches during the season.[7][8] In hissecond year, the same occurred: Moyá was again downed with physical problems and Lux was promoted to starter,[9] but lost his job in January 2009 with the signing ofDudu Aouate fromDeportivo de La Coruña.[8]

Deportivo

[edit]

In the following two seasons, Lux was almost exclusively restricted toCopa del Rey matches with Mallorca, only totalling five league appearances.[8] The same fate befell him at his next club, Deportivo La Coruña,[10] where he initially played second-fiddle toDani Aranzubia.[11][12]

Lux was again the starter in the2013–14 campaign, as theGalicians finished runners-up in theSegunda División and subsequently returned to the top flight.[13] Afterwards, he alternated in goal withFabricio.[14]

Return to River

[edit]

On 26 June 2017, ten years after leaving for Europe, the 35-year-old Lux returned to River Plate on a three-year contract.[15] In December 2021, after several years as backup toFranco Armani where he was often criticised for his performances,[16][17] he announced his retirement.[18]

International career

[edit]

As a starter during the2004 Summer Olympics (all six matches, no goals conceded), Lux was instrumental inthe gold medal triumph of theArgentina national team, who scored 17.[19] He made hisfull debut on 9 March 2005 in a 1–1friendly draw againstMexico, as managerJosé Pékerman only fielded players based in the Argentine league.[20]

Lux was also first-choice in the2005 FIFA Confederations Cup for the runners-up.[21][22] He was left out of the squad for the2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, however, andOscar Ustari was picked instead.[20]

Personal life

[edit]

Lux's older brother,Javier, was also a footballer. Amidfielder, he played for several teams during his career.[5]
