Kishi Denise Núñez (born 17 May 2006) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Campeonato Femenino club Boca Juniors and the Argentina women's national team.
Club career
Argentinos Juniors
Núñez made her top-flight debut with Argentinos Juniors, in the Primera B, on 22 August 2021.[1] She scored thirty goals for El Bicho, becoming the top scorer in their history, surpassing Agustina Occhiuzzi and Luana Mendizábal.[2]
Boca Juniors
During the 2022 season, Núñez signed with Boca Juniors. She played her first match with the club and scored her first goal on 21 August 2022.[2] In her first appearance as a starter, she scored 3 goals in a 3-1 victory over Racing.[3]
Núñez was also part of the squad that played in the 2022 Copa Libertadores Femenina, scoring a goal against the Brazilian team Corinthians, who were the reigning champions, thus being key in the team's 2-1 victory. Boca Juniors would later lose in the final, but would still achieve a historic performance for an Argentine team, with Núñez herself being a very important asset.[4]

Also in 2022, she was called up for the first time to the U-20 team for the L'Alcúdia International Football Tournament, a tournament in which they finished runners-up after losing 2–1 to Villarreal in the final.[7]
On 23 August 2024, Núñez was confirmed as part of the 21-player squad drawn up by coach Christian Meloni to represent Argentina at the U-20 World Cup that same year.[8]
