Raúl Osvaldo Castronovo Zanón (born 11 January 1949) is an Argentine retired
footballer who played as a
striker .
Club career
Born in
Rosario, Santa Fe , Castronovo began his career with local
Rosario Central in 1968. An economic crisis prompted his move to
Peñarol in
Uruguay , where he became the
top scorer of the
1971 edition of the
Copa Libertadores , tied with
Luis Artime at ten goals.
[1]
After playing in
Ligue 1 with
AS Nancy Lorraine for three seasons, Castronovo moved to Spain where he remained until the end of his career, representing
CD Málaga ,
Hércules CF ,
UD Salamanca and
Algeciras CF and competing in both
La Liga and
Segunda División . On 27 April 1980, whilst a
free agent , he was involved in a
match fixing incident between the first and the third clubs which resulted in a two-year ban for himself, Málaga teammate Julio Orozco and Salamanca manager
Felipe Mesones ;
[2] he retired shortly after, aged only 31.
