International football accounts for a further 9 seasons with Argentina, running alongside the club years rather than after them — which is why the dates in the table overlap. Youth and reserve appearances are held separately below and are not counted in these figures.

Spells are listed by the seasons in which the player appears in the provider’s squad records. Where two clubs overlap in the same year the player moved mid-season, and both are shown rather than one being chosen.
