Club career

Valencia

Born in Rosario, Santa Fe, Cartabia moved to Spain and Valencia CF at the age of 13, going on to represent several of its youth sides. He made his senior debut in the 2012–13 season, with the reserves in the third division.[1]

Cartabia started playing with the first team in the 2013 pre-season, after impressing manager Miroslav Đukić. He renewed his contract in late July, with the new link running until June 2017 and having a buyout clause of €20 million.[2]

Cartabia made his debut in La Liga on 17 August 2013, starting and playing 65 minutes in a 1–0 home win against Málaga CF.[3] He scored his first goals for the Che on 24 October, with a brace in a 5–1 victory over FC St. Gallen in the campaign's UEFA Europa League.[4]

On 11 July 2014, Cartabia was loaned out to newly promoted Córdoba CF in a season-long deal with a buyout clause.[5] He made his debut for the Andalusians on 25 August, coming on as a substitute for Daniel Pinillos in a 0–2 loss at Real Madrid;[6] his first goal in the top division arrived five days later, as he scored his team's in a 1–1 home draw to RC Celta de Vigo.[7]

Deportivo

On 30 July 2015, Cartabia was loaned to another club in the top division, Deportivo de La Coruña, for one year.[8] In January 2017 he cut ties with Valencia and agreed to a permanent five-year contract at the Galicians, being then loaned to S.C. Braga of the Portuguese Primeira Liga for five months.[9]
