Juan Eduardo Samudio (born October 14, 1978 in Asunción , Paraguay ) is a former Paraguayan national soccer player . The striker is the top scorer in the Paraguayan first division, the Primera División , with 116 goals . Mainly he played for the top club Club Libertad , with which he was national champion five times.

career

Juan Samudio made his debut with Libertad in March 1997. In the same year he took part with Paraguay in the U-20 World Cup in Malaysia . After Libertad's relegation from the first division, he moved to Club Guaraní in 1999 , but returned to his old place of work in 2000. With Libertad he managed to rise again in the same year. In 2002, 2003 and 2006 he won the national championship with Libertad. In 2002 and 2004 he was also the league shooter king with appealing 23 and 23 goals this season.

In October 2002, the sturdy, 1.79 m tall striker made his debut in the national soccer team of Paraguay in Logroño in a 0-0 win against Spain . By July 2003 he came six more missions for Paraguay in which he scored two goals.

In 2007 he had the opportunity for an international transfer and joined the Mexican first division club Querétaro FC . In the first half of the year, however, he was relegated with Querétaro and returned to Paraguay.

There he joined Guaraní again and played with the club in the Clausura of the championship. From 2008 to 2009 he was back in the ranks of Libertad and won two more championships with the club. In June 2008 he scored his hundredth goal in the Primera División. In September of that year he scored his 108th goal, becoming the league's record scorer, overtaking Mauro Caballero .

In mid-2009 he moved to Ecuador for Barcelona SC Guayaquil . By then he had scored a total of 116 goals in the Primera División of Paraguay, 111 for Libertad and five for Guaraní.

In 2011 he returned to Paraguay and joined the first division club Sportivo Luqueño .

His status as the record scorer in the national league can be attributed to the fact that traditionally the strongest Paraguayan strikers, such as Arsenio Erico and Delfín Cáceres , or, for example, between 2000 and 2010, José Cardozo and Roque Santa Cruz play for foreign clubs. This also explains the relatively low number of his internationals.
