Diego Alfonso Valdés Contreras (born 30 January 1994) is a Chilean footballer who currently plays for Chilean Primera División club Audax Italiano as a midfielder.
Club career
He made his professional debut in 2012, in a match against Universidad Católica for the Chilean Primera División.
International career
Valdés was expected to play for the Chile national under-20 football team in the 2013 South American Youth Championship in Argentina. However, he was left out of the team at the last minute by manager Mario Salas.
The team’s performance in Argentina qualified them for a place in the Turkey 2013 under-20 World Cup and when team member Diego Rojas was injured and unable to play, Valdés was selected to take his place.[1]
He got his first call up to the senior Chile squad for a friendly against the United States in January 2015 and made his international debut in the match.[2]
