Annika Paz (born 16 November 2008) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie A club Inter Milan and the Argentina national team.
Club career
Paz got into football thanks to her father and brother, and made her debut in the same youth championship in which the latter played.[1]
In 2021, at the age of 13, Paz tried out for the River Plate youth team, and was actually recruited.[1] In 2024, she made her first team debut and on 30 November 2024, she scored her first goal, in a victory against Belgrano.[2]
On 27 January 2026, Paz arrived in Italy, being purchased by Inter Milan.[3]
International career
Paz has been a recurring figure in Argentina's youth national teams. She captained the under-17 team that competed in the South American U-17 Championship in Paraguay in March 2024, and subsequently was part of the under-20 squad in the South American Under-20 Championship in Ecuador later that year, a tournament in which Argentina qualified for the U-20 World Cup after 12 years, although Paz was ultimately not called up to participate.[4]
On 28 October 2025, Paz also made her debut for the senior national team, during a 2025–26 CONMEBOL Women's Nations League match against Uruguay, in which she scored the goal that made it 2–2.[2] With this goal, she became the youngest scorer for the South American national team at the age of 16.[3]
