Career
Born in Córdoba, Panichelli began his career with local side Racing de Córdoba, and subsequently represented Belgrano and Atalaya de Córdoba also in his hometown.[1] In February 2020, after a failed trial at Boca Juniors, he signed for River Plate.[2]
On 13 January 2023, Panichelli moved abroad and signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with Spanish Segunda División side Deportivo Alavés, being initially assigned to the reserves in Segunda Federación.[3] He made his first team – and professional – debut on 5 May, coming on as a late substitute for Miguel de la Fuente in a 1–1 home draw against Granada CF.[4]
After nursing a knee injury,[5] Panichelli made his La Liga debut on 3 February 2024, replacing Samu Omorodion late into a 3–1 home loss to FC Barcelona. On 19 August, he was loaned to CD Mirandés in the second division for the season.[6]
On his club debut on 24 August 2024, Panichelli scored the opener in a 1–1 away draw against Málaga CF; it was also his first professional goal. He ended the season with 21 goals overall, being the club's top scorer as they narrowly missed out promotion in the play-offs.[7]
Personal life
Panichelli's father Germán was also a footballer and a forward.[8]
