Diego Alejandro Claut Ordaz (born 3 January 2008) is a Venezuelan footballer who currently plays as a forward for Deportivo Miranda.
Club career
Born in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas, Claut played futsal between the ages of five and nine, honing his skills at the Escuela Simón Bolívar.[2] He went on to join Academia Fratelsa, a feeder team of professional club Deportivo Miranda, known at the time as Deportivo Petare, before being enrolled in the academy of Deportivo Miranda themselves.[2]
In the 2024 season, Claut scored twenty goals in the Liga FUTVE Junior, and was handed his first-team debut by manager Andrea Fabri, which he marked with the only goal in Deportivo Miranda's 1–0 win against Fundación AIFI.[3] He would only feature once more in the season, playing the full ninety minutes against Atlético La Cruz, before returning to the first team with two goals in Deportivo Miranda's 4–1 win against Monagas B on 27 April 2025.[2]
International career
Already a Venezuelan youth international at under-15 level, Claut was called up to the under-17 squad for the 2025 South American U-17 Championship, where he finished as third highest goal-scorer with four goals.[4] Venezuela were knocked out of the competition at the semi-final round, with Claut scoring in their 5–1 loss to Colombia, but their third-place finish after a 3–0 win against Chile still qualified them for the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup.[4]
At the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup Claut featured in all three of Venezuela's group stage games, starting in his nation's win and draw against England and Egypt, respectively, before notching his first goal of the tournament against Haiti in their final group stage match – a 4–2 win.[5]
Personal life
Claut is of Italian descent and holds Italian nationality through his family.[6]
