Ignacio David Fideleff (born 4 July 1989 in Rosario) is an Argentine-Israeli footballer of Russian-Jewish descent.[1] He plays for Primera División side Tigre on loan from Serie A team Napoli.
Career
Fideleff was born in Rosario, Santa Fe and grown up as a footballer in Club Atlético Newell's Old Boys's youths. He made his debut for the Newell's first team on 24 March 2008 against Lanús,[2] scoring a goal.[1] He played for the club for five seasons, collecting 35 appearances in Argentine Primera División, scoring 3 goals.
At the start of the 2011–12 season, Fideleff was purchased by Serie A club Napoli,[2] for a reported fee of around €3m, believed to be a substitute for Spaniard Víctor Ruiz who was sold to Valencia.[3] He debuted in Serie A on 21 September 2011, featuring in the starting line-up against Veronese club Chievo.
On 14 July 2012, Fideleff joined Parma on a loan deal for the 2012-13 season.[4]
On 30 January 2013, Fideleff joined Maccabi Tel Aviv on a loan deal for the remainder of the season. The deal came through after Fideleff received an Israeli citizenship due to his Jewish origins.
On 5 August 2013, Fideleff returned to Argentina to join Tigre on a season-long loan.[5]
