Juan Sánchez Miño

Juan Manuel Sánchez Miño (born 1 January 1990) is an Argentine former professional footballer who played as a left-back or winger.

He holds an Italian passport. It was not until 2012 when, entering often as a substitute, he gained recognition during a very good season that included his first goal in the local league, against San Lorenzo, and three goals at the 2012 Copa Libertadores: against Arsenal de Sarandí, against Fluminense on 11 April, and against Universidad de Chile on 14 June in the semifinal.

Torino He took part in Torino's pre-season retreat in July 2014, however, his signing was delayed following problems over the players passport, with Torino having already filled their non-EU squad quota. This was resolved, as he received an Italian passport in August, through a confirmed Italian ancestry in Soveria Mannelli, a Calabrian region of southern Italy. On 9 August 2014 Torino officially announced they had signed Sánchez Miño for an undisclosed fee from Boca Juniors. He debuted in Serie A on 1 September 2014 in Torino-Inter, 0–0.

Colón In January 2022, Sánchez moved to fellow league club Colón on a deal until the end of 2023.
