He had also played in Greek soccer<\/strong> <\/h2>\n

The 38-year-old defender<\/strong> is also well known to Greek fans, as he wore the jersey of Atromitos<\/strong> in the early years of his career. He then played on loan for Ethnikos Asteras<\/strong> and Aegaleo<\/strong>, before continuing his career in Argentina<\/strong>, the United States<\/strong>, Colombia<\/strong>, Mexico<\/strong>, and Venezuela<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

A few hours before the tragic outcome became known, Trech\u00f3 had posted a family photo<\/strong>, expressing his hope that his loved ones would be found alive. <\/p>\n

According to Argentine media, his father and brother traveled immediately to Venezuela<\/strong> to assist with the investigation. <\/p>\n

A post his wife made last April on the occasion of his birthday is also deeply moving. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a blessing for our family to have you and to move forward together toward our common goal. With you, everything is always easier and more beautiful<\/strong>,\u201d he had written. <\/p>\n
