Alexis Francisco Flores (born 11 January 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for San Lorenzo.[4]

Club career

Flores concurrently played for three clubs, including Club de Olivos, before joining San Lorenzo at the end of 2014.[1][3][5] He was promoted into the first-team in 2020, when manager Diego Monarriz selected him to start and finish a Torneos de Verano friendly with Talleres on 11 January.[4] He was subsequently on the bench for two competitive fixtures in March under caretaker managers Leandro Romagnoli and Hugo Tocalli.[4] It was, after six further matches as an unused sub, under Mariano Soso that Flores would make his debut, as he replaced Alexis Sabella during a Copa de la Liga Profesional win away to Atlético Tucumán on 29 December.[4]

International career

Flores represented Argentina at various youth levels.[1] He was a part of the squad that won the 2017 South American U-15 Championship, with the centre-back scoring a goal during a draw with Chile on 11 November.[1] Two years later, Flores made seven appearances as they won the 2019 South American U-17 Championship in Peru.[4] At the subsequent FIFA U-17 World Cup, Flores scored a goal against Cameroon.[4] He also featured at numerous friendly tournaments at youth level, as well as appearing in U17 friendlies with the United States and, scoring against, New Zealand.[1][4][6] In December 2020, Flores received a call-up from the U20s.[7]

Style of play

Flores is primarily a centre-back, though did start out his youth career as a central midfielder.[1]
