🇦🇷 Argentine Spanish — position names that differ

Arquero — In Argentina the goalkeeper is always arquero, never portero. Spain and most of Latin America use portero.

Enganche — The classic Argentine #10: a creative playmaker who sits between the lines. Elsewhere this role is called mediapunta or número 10.

Volante — In Argentina, volante is the general term for any central midfielder. A volante central is box-to-box; a volante defensivo is the holding midfielder (pivote in Spain).

Punta — Argentine term for a striker or forward. A centrodelantero is a centre-forward. In Spain the standard terms are delantero or ariete.

Carrilero — In a 3-back system, the wide runners are called carrileros in Argentina (wing-backs). The term also travels well in Spain.
