Club career
Lanús
In 2007, Marchesín was signed by Club Atlético Lanús from regional club Huracán de Tres Arroyos (which he was already a first team member since 2005, but did not play). He was a non-playing member of the Lanús squad that won the 2007 Apertura tournament.
On 1 March 2009, Marchesín made his competitive debut in a 2–0 win against Gimnasia y Esgrima de Jujuy. On 29 April, he made his first appearance in the Copa Libertadores, a 1–1 draw against Caracas FC. That year, he relegated Mauricio Caranta to the bench and established himself as first-choice goalkeeper, playing in most of Lanús' games of the Apertura tournament.
On 2 December 2016, it was announced that Santos Laguna had sold Marchesín to Club América.[8]
Marchesín made his 100th league appearance in Mexico in América's 2–1 win against Toluca on 30 September 2017.[9]
On 16 December 2018, Marchesín won his first league title with América following a 2–0 aggregate victory over Cruz Azul in the Apertura finals.[10]
Porto
On 31 July 2019, Marchesín moved to Portugal's FC Porto on a four-year deal, for an undisclosed amount reported as €7.2 million. He joined as a replacement for Iker Casillas, who had suffered a heart attack in May.[11] He made his debut on 7 August in the first leg of the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League away to FC Krasnodar in Russia, making a late save from Rémy Cabella.[12] He was the Primeira Liga Goalkeeper of the Month in each of his first four months.[13] Porto won the league and Taça de Portugal double, and he was named Goalkeeper of the Year[14] and made the Team of the Year.[15] In November 2019, he missed the local derby with Boavista F.C. due to internal suspension for having partied until early in the morning with teammates Luis Díaz, Mateus Uribe and Renzo Saravia.[16]
Marchesín missed the start of the 2021–22 season through a meniscus injury to his right knee, and was replaced by youngster Diogo Costa.[17] In a title-winning campaign, he played only three minutes in a 2–0 win at F.C. Arouca on 6 February.[18] Five days later, he was one of four players sent off in a melee at the end of a 2–2 draw with Sporting CP, and was handed a two-game suspension;[19] on 7 December he was also dismissed without playing in a similar event against Atlético Madrid in the Champions League group stage.[20]
On 2 August 2022, La Liga side RC Celta de Vigo signed Marchesín on a three-year deal with the option of one more.[23] He made his debut 11 days later as the season began with a 2–2 home draw against RCD Espanyol, conceding the equaliser from Joselu's penalty in the seventh minute of added time.[24]
Grêmio
On 10 January 2024, Marchesín moved to Brazil, signing a two-year contract with Série A club Grêmio.[25]
