Career
He started his career playing for the famous Boca Juniors academy which has a habit of producing star players. Clubs from across the continent started to become aware of Tripodi's goalscoring for the Boca Juniors U18s team, scoring 31 times in his first season. He was then quickly taken on by Köln, of Germany, where he played one match, against Duisburg, in which he scored his only goal for the club,[1] and then was demoted to Köln II.[2] He then returned to Argentina, where he joined San Martín de San Juan,[2] playing four matches for the club.[3]
On February 7, 2008, he was signed by Santos of Brazil,[4] and on February 21, 2008, Trípodi played his first match as a Santos player when his club beat Guarani 3-1.[5] On August 22, 2008, he was loaned by Santos to Vitória,[6] and on August 30, 2008, he played his first match as a Vitória player, when his club and Ipatinga drew 0-0.[7] Trípodi joined Atlético Mineiro on March 5, 2009.[8] Tripodi is regularly scouted and it was no surprise that it was announced that he had agreed to a ten-day trial at Leeds United on August 5, 2009, arriving in England on August 6, 2009.[9] He played and scored the opening goal on August 12, 2009 in a behind closed doors game against a Newcastle United XI, which Leeds won 5-1. After a half year with Clube Atlético Metropolitano in Brazil,[10] he returned in June 2010 to Argentina and signed an one year contract for Arsenal de Sarandí.[11]
