Benjamín Andrés Inostroza Zuñiga (born 25 April 1997) is a Chilean footballer who currently plays for Deportes Limache.

Career

He debuted on 12 September 2012 in a match against Santiago Morning for the 2012 Copa Chile, scoring the second goal of Universidad de Chile in the match, and becoming the youngest Chilean player to score in an official match.^[1][2] He played his first league match on 29 September in a match against Unión La Calera^[3]

However, Inostroza's career didn't go as expected. He failed to find a regular place in U. de Chile's senior side and went on loan to lower-division Deportes Pintana. Later he joined Audax Italiano's youth side, but never made it into the club's senior side. Inostroza spent the rest of his career in the lower divisions of Chilean football.^[4]
