Club career

Sarmiento began his career in Argentina with Estudiantes de La Plata, signing for La Liga outfit Racing de Santander in July 2007. A complicated transfer situation between both clubs, which involved the Court of Arbitration for Sport's mediation, meant that the 17-year old spent the entire 2007–08 without making a single first-team appearance.[1]

For 2008–09, Sarmiento was loaned to Xerez CD, in Segunda División, first appearing in a 0–1 home loss to Córdoba CF, on September 21, 2008 (11 minutes played). Never an undisputed starter, he did feature significantly as the Andalusians achieved a first-ever top flight promotion.

On August 31, Sarmiento went on another season-long loan, yet in the second level, now with Girona FC.

International career

Sarmiento was named best newcomer while playing for the Argentine U17 team, in a friendly tournament in 2006.[2]

Brian Sarmiento is an Argentine football midfielder/forward. He was born on April 22 1990, in the city of Rosario He is currently suspended by FIFA from playing for Racing of the Spanish La Liga.

Sarmiento has represented Argentina in the U-17 category.

Racing spent a long while chasing Sarmiento, who fell out with Estudiantes de La Plata over a contract dispute. They eventually got his signature in August of 2007, but Estudiantes filed for a suspension because Sarmiento left the club in violation of first-contract provisions, apparently to reunite with his father. On October 11, 2007, FIFA announced that Sarmiento is not allowed to play official football [1260]. Racing announced that it will appeal the decision, while the possibility has been raised that Racing may negotiate with Estudiantes for a formal transfer.
