Club career

Summarize
Perspective

Vella started his career with Escuela Pablo Kratina, which preceded a move to Huracán de Córdoba in 2008.[1] In 2011, Instituto signed Vella.[1] Having spent five years in the youth ranks of the Córdoba club, his professional bow came in a goalless draw with Gimnasia y Esgrima on 31 January 2016; which was followed by his opening goal two appearances later against Estudiantes.[2][4] Further goals arrived versus Independiente Rivadavia, All Boys, Nueva Chicago and Almagro.[2] After five goals in sixteen fixtures in 2016, Vella followed that up with a sole goal in the same number of matches across the 2016–17 campaign.[2]

In August 2017, Vella joined Torneo Federal A side Central Córdoba on loan.[2][5] Eleven goals, including a Copa Argentina hat-trick over San Lorenzo, followed as they won promotion to tier two.[2][6] Primera División team Godoy Cruz announced the signing of Vella on 11 June 2019, ahead of the 2019–20 season.[7] He scored one goal, versus Colón on 21 October, in fifteen total matches for them.[2] On 16 July 2020, Vella sealed a return to Central Córdoba on a free transfer; with the club now in the Primera División.[8]

After a spell at San Martín de Tucumán in 2021, Vella joined Primera Nacional side Alvarado ahead of the 2022 season.[9]

International career

At a young age, Vella was called up by the Argentina U15s.[1]

Personal life

In December 2018, Vella was involved in a serious one-person, single-vehicle crash.[10][11] Despite the car ending on its roof without wheels, Vella escaped unharmed.[10][11]
