Daniel Alberto Néculman Suárez (born May 25, 1985) is an Argentine-Chilean former footballer who played for clubs in Argentina, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Mexico and Bolivia.

Career

[edit]

Born in Bariloche, Néculman began playing club football for local side Club Deportivo Municipales. After he impressed in the Bariloche local league with Municipales, Néculman signed for another Patagonian club Comisión de Actividades Infantiles Comodoro Rivadavia in the summer of 2002. He made his senior debut for C.A.I. in the 2002–03 Primera B Nacional relegation playoffs against Racing de Córdoba. Néculman failed to secure a regular place in C.A.I.'s first team, so he went on loan to Argentino A side Huracán de Comodoro Rivadavia. By 2006, Néculman moved to another Patagonian club Deportivo Madryn, playing in the Argentino B.[1]

Néculman had his first opportunity to play abroad when he signed with Ecuador's Imbabura S.C. in 2007. It was the club's first ever season in the Ecuadorian Serie A, and Néculman led the club by scoring 16 goals (the second most in the league) but the club were relegated at the end of the season.[1][2]

Néculman joined Colombia's Categoría Primera A side Independiente Santa Fe at the beginning of 2008. Initially, he failed to settle, but when manager "Pecoso" Castro was dismissed midway through the season, Néculman flourished under new manager Hernán Darío Gómez.[1]

After a few seasons in Colombia, Néculman returned to Ecuador where he played for C.D. Olmedo and L.D.U. Portoviejo before joining Serie A side River Plate Ecuador in 2015. He was the top goalscorer for River, notching 10 goals by May 2015.[3]

Late in his career, Néculman returned to Argentina where he played for Ferro Carril Oeste (General Pico) in the 2019–20 Torneo Federal A.[4]

In total, Néculman played for 19 professional football clubs over nearly two decades; most of them outside his native Argentina.[5]
