Cristian Rómulo Ojeda (born 22 January 1999) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Talleres.[1]

Club career

Before joining Talleres, Ojeda played for the Huracán de Posadas youth system from 2007 to 2013.[3] Midway through the 2017–18 Argentine Primera División season, Talleres promoted Ojeda into their first-team squad.[1][4] He made his debut on 26 January during a home victory over San Lorenzo.[1] In February, Ojeda made three appearances at 2018 U-20 Copa Libertadores in Uruguay for the club's U20 team.[1] On 1 March 2019, Ojeda joined USL Championship side Portland Timbers 2 on loan for their 2019 season.[5] He scored his first senior goal in a 4–2 defeat at Casino Arizona Field to Phoenix Rising on 29 June.[1][6]

Ojeda returned to Talleres at the end of 2019 after four goals in twenty-seven matches for the Americans, as he subsequently departed to Uruguayan football with Atenas in August 2020.[7] He made his Segunda División debut on 18 August against Albion, prior to scoring his first goal for Atenas in a 2–2 draw with Villa Española on 1 September.[1] He ended his loan in October after picking up a muscle injury.[8]

International career

In March 2018, Ojeda was selected by the Argentina U20 team that trained and travelled with the seniors for friendlies with Italy and Spain.[9][10]
