Santiago Giménez

Santiago Giménez of AC Milan was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina on 18 April 2001 (age 25).

Santiago Giménez, born on 18 April 2001 (age 25), is a Mexico striker currently with AC Milan. His strongest league return so far came at Feyenoord in 2023-24, when he scored 23 goals in 30 appearances, the sort of output that tends to move a centre-forward from useful to watched.

At AC Milan in 2025-26, his role has remained relevant even if the league goals have not followed. He has made 16 Serie A appearances without scoring, and two Coppa Italia appearances, with one goal, giving him 18 appearances and one goal across all competitions for the club this season.

Giménez has also continued to feature for Mexico, making six Gold Cup appearances this season. His career is still taking shape: a productive spell at Feyenoord, regular involvement at Milan, and an ongoing place in the national squad.

Santiago Giménez was used regularly by AC Milan in Serie A, making 16 appearances and 11 starts, but he did not score in the league. His Coppa Italia goal from two appearances was the exception, while six Gold Cup appearances also brought no goals, pointing to a centre-forward involved often enough to matter but not converting that involvement into league output.

That jump followed a high-scoring Feyenoord spell, but the AC Milan return in 2025-26 was more limited, with 16 Serie A appearances and no league goals.
