Fernando Andrés Cafasso (born 9 February 1983, in Jacinto Aráuz) is an Argentine former footballer, who played as a midfielder.

Career

Early career

Cafasso began his football at River Plate. Because he was not playing enough, he switched teams multiple times. He seemed to have finally found his place at Guaraní, but decided to move to Italy short after he signed for them.

Italy / Greece

Treviso was the first European team Caffaso played for. He then opted to move to Greece, at Ionikos, but did not earn a lot of matches here as well.

Gloria Bistrița

Before moving to Gloria, he had another failed spell at Guaraní. In Romania, Cafasso established himself as a key player very quickly. In spite of Gloria's relegation to Liga II, he chose not to leave the club and contributed to Gloria's promotion the following season. As of the 2012–13 season, he was chosen to be Gloria's captain by coach Nicolae Manea, thus becoming the first foreign captain in the club's history. He was released from Gloria in January 2013 when the club was put under administration.
