Danubio

[edit]

Siri is a youth academy graduate of Danubio. He made his professional debut for the club on 20 September 2020 in a 2–2 draw against Boston River.[3][4] On 19 March 2021, he scored a hat-trick in a 5–1 league win against the same opponent, at the age of 16 years and 348 days in the Uruguayan first division. This made him not only the third youngest player in history to score a hat-trick in professional football, only behind Pelé and Trevor Francis,[5] but also the youngest-ever player to score a treble in the top flight, since Pelé did it in a friendly and Francis in the English second tier.[6] He also became the youngest South American to score a hat-trick in professional football, breaking the previous record set by Ronaldo in 1993.[7][8]
