Club career

Born in Ciudad Evita, Greater Buenos Aires, Hanuch started playing professionally with Club Atlético Platense, joining Club Atlético Independiente after five years. He was then bought by Portugal's Sporting CP,[1] where he was used during the first year,[2] serving consecutive loans as early as the second season[3] and being ultimately released in July 2003.[4] In his only season with the "Lions", he totalled 418 minutes of action[5][6] as the Lisbon side ended an 18-year drought and won the Primeira Liga championship.[7]

Subsequently, Hanuch returned to Argentina, playing for Club Olimpo, Talleres de Córdoba, Defensores de Belgrano and Club Atlético Nueva Chicago, with a Brazilian spell (Rio Branco Esporte Clube) in between. After six months in Albania, he returned to his first club Platense for the 2008–09 campaign, retiring at the age of 32 and becoming a sports agent.[8]

Death

Hanuch died on 26 May 2020 at 43 in Buenos Aires, due to stomach cancer.[9][8] The previous decade he had been forced to undergo a kidney transplant, with the organ being donated by his sister.[10]
