Mariana Valeria Larroquette (born 24 October 1992) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Brazilian club Santos and the Argentina national team.

Club career

Early career

Larroquette began her career with River Plate, being a prolific goalscorer for the side as they won the 2010 Clausura tournament. In 2016, she moved abroad and joined Chilean side Universidad de Chile,[3] and scored six times on her debut against Deportes La Serena.[4]

Larroquette was one of the key units of La U during their 2016 Apertura title, scoring 21 goals in the tournament.[5] In the following year, however, she returned to her home country and signed for UAI Urquiza. She won two consecutive titles with the club (in the 2017–18 and 2018–19 seasons), being the top scorer in the first campaign with 45 goals.[6]

Lyn

In August 2020, Larroquette moved to Lyn Fotball Damer in Norway, becoming the first Argentine to play in the Toppserien.[7] She was only rarely used at his new side, playing in just four matches.

Kansas City

On 22 December 2020, Larroquette was announced as the first international addition of National Women's Soccer League side Kansas City.[8] Despite playing 21 matches, she only started nine of them, scoring twice. On 21 December 2021, the club announced her departure.[9]

Sporting CP

On 6 January 2022, Larroquette switched teams and countries again, after being announced at Sporting CP in Portugal on a six-month deal.[10] Despite being regularly used, she left on 9 June.[11]

León

On 11 July 2022, Larroquette moved to Mexico and joined Liga MX Femenil side León.[12] She departed the club after nine goals in 26 official matches on 1 July 2023.[13]

Orlando Pride

On 6 July 2023, it was announced Larroquette had signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Orlando Pride of the National Women's Soccer League, joining the team following the conclusion of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.[14] In January 2024, Larroquette acquired a U.S. green card meaning she would no longer occupy an international roster spot.[15]

In January 2025, Larroquette returned to Argentina on a six-month loan to Newell's Old Boys.[16] After the loan expired, Larroquette was sent out once again, this time on a loan to Lexington SC lasting from July to the end of the 2025 NWSL season.[17][18] She did not make an appearance for Lexington before her loan concluded in December 2025.[19]

Santos

On 21 January 2026, Larroquette moved to Brazil and signed a two-year contract with Santos.[20]

International career

Larroquette represented Argentina at the 2008 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup and the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[21] At senior level, she played at two Copa América Femenina editions (2014 and 2018), scoring three goals at the first and two at the latter,[22] as well as the 2015 Pan American Games and the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup.[note 1] She also represented Argentina at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, starting all 3 of the team's matches at striker.

Personal life

Larroquette is a supporter of Racing.[24]
