Ramiro Funes Mori
José Ramiro Funes Mori (Spanish pronunciation: [xoˈse raˈmiɾo ˈfunes ˈmoɾi]; born 5 March 1991) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a defender for Argentine Primera División club Estudiantes. He plays primarily as a centre-back but can also operate as a left-back and defensive midfielder.
Funes Mori was born in Mendoza. He emigrated with his family from Argentina to the United States in 2001. His father, Miguel, played professional football in Argentina with clubs such as Independiente Rivadavia and Club Atlético Argentino in the 1980s. In 2008, Funes Mori joined the FC Dallas youth team after his twin brother Rogelio Gabriel won the Sueño MLS talent competition, but spent less than a year playing for the side before moving back to Argentina.
Funes Mori joined River Plate as a youth player, progressing to the senior team in 2011. He is considered a legend of the club because he won six professional titles, four of them international, including the 2015 Copa Libertadores. He made his debut for the Argentina national team whilst playing for River Plate. Funes Mori is remembered not only for his performances and titles, but also for scoring very important goals such as the third goal in the Copa Libertadores final and an iconic goal against Boca Juniors. He made a total of 108 appearances for River Plate across five seasons, scoring ten goals.
On 1 September 2015, Funes Mori joined Premier League club Everton for a fee of £9.5 million. He made his debut eleven days later, coming on as a substitute, in a 3–1 home win against Chelsea. He scored his first goal for Everton in a 3–3 draw with Bournemouth in November 2015. In his first season with the club, he received significant playing time at centre back due to injuries and lack of form for the expected starting pair of Phil Jagielka and John Stones. In April 2016, Funes Mori was sent off for a tackle on Divock Origi in a 4–0 loss to Liverpool, leading to a three-match suspension. He scored five goals across all competitions in his first season with the club.
Funes Mori was out for the remainder of the 2016–17 season after suffering a torn meniscus while on international duty with Argentina in March 2017. In the summer of 2017, Funes Mori had undergone a second operation on his knee injury in Barcelona and was looking at between six and nine months on the sidelines.
On 21 June 2018, Funes Mori joined La Liga club Villarreal for an undisclosed fee.
On 22 July 2021, Funes Mori signed two-year contract with Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr for a fee of €2.5 million.
Funes Mori signed a two-year contract with Mexican club Cruz Azul on 4 August 2022, for a transfer fee of €1.5 million. His contract with the club expired on 17 May 2023, and he left.
