Federico Guillermo Lussenhoff (born 14 January 1974) is an Argentine former professional footballer who played as a central defender.

In a career which lasted almost 20 years, he represented clubs in Mexico and Spain other than in his own country.

Club career

In the latter nation, to where he arrived in January 1999, he was relegated from La Liga in his first season, then became an undisputed starter as the Canary Islands side returned to the top flight in 2001, under Rafael Benítez.^[4] With its Balearic Islands neighbours he managed to be relatively used during two years, helping them win the 2003 edition of the Copa del Rey.^[5]

In 2005, after 192 competitive matches in five and a half seasons in Spanish football, Lussenhoff returned to his country and signed with Club Atlético River Plate. He dropped down to the second division three years later, moving to Talleres de Córdoba.^[6]

Lussenhoff returned to Spain on 20 January 2010, as he joined his compatriot Nestor Gorosito – coach – at Xerez CD as director of football.^[7]
