Career

edit

Almada began his senior career with Rosario Central.[2][3][4] Edgardo Bauza picked Almada on the substitutes bench for a Primera División fixture with Vélez Sarsfield on 3 December 2018, though didn't select the defender to come on in a 2–0 loss.[2] Bauza soon left the club, with Paulo Ferrari replacing him at the helm and subsequently awarding Almada his professional debut from the start against Belgrano in March 2019.[2][5]

On 5 June 2026, Almada signed with Puebla.[6]
