Juan Ignacio Vieyra (born 20 April 1992) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Marathón in Honduras.[2]

Career

Vieyra began his senior career with Newell's Old Boys.[3] [4] He made his first-team bow on 8 December 2012 during an Argentine Primera División win away to Argentinos Juniors, which preceded a further six appearances for the midfielder in 2012–13; including his Copa Libertadores debut against Olimpia in February 2013.[2] [5] In total, Vieyra featured in fifteen games for Newell's in four seasons; though didn't start a league game in that time.[2] In January 2016, Vieyra went to Paraguay with Cerro Porteño.[2] He was selected just four times in 2016, which preceded Vieyra departing on loan to fellow Paraguayan Primera División team Nacional in 2017.[2]

Vieyra scored on his Nacional debut, netting his first senior goal in a home loss to Deportivo Capiatá; that was one of four goals in his first campaign with them.[2] He remained to play in two more seasons with Nacional, scoring thirteen times in the process; which included braces in 2018 over Guaraní and 3 de Febrero.[2] Midway through 2019, on 1 August, Vieyra agreed a move back to his homeland with Huracán.[6] [7] His bow arrived on 18 August versus Patronato as they lost 2–1, though Vieyra did assist his team's goal.[2] Vieyra netted his first Argentine top-flight goal in February 2020 against Godoy Cruz.[2] He departed the club months later.[8]

In July 2020, Vieyra headed to Central Córdoba.[8] Following spells at Delfín in Colombia and at Cobresal in Chile, Vieyra moved to Honduras at the end of January 2022, where he signed with Marathón.[9]
