Carlos Desiderio Peucelle (13 September 1908 – 1 April 1990) was an Argentinefootball player who played as an inside forward or as a right winger and is considered one of Argentina's finest wingers in their history. He is also known for being the catalyst for starting "La Máquina" with River Plate who went on to dominate football in South America in the 1940s.
Peucelle played for River from 1931 to 1941 (307 matches and scored 143 goals). During this time "Los Millonarios" were champions of Argentina on 4 occasions; 1932, 1936, 1937 and 1941.
Peucelle established the first soccer school in Colombia.
Peucele is credited as being one of the creators of "La Máquina" (The Machine), the all conquering River Plate team of the 1940s. In fact he wrote a book entitled "Futbol Todotiempo e Historia de La Máquina" (Football the times and history of "La Máquina")
Peucelle gained the nickname "El Primer Millonario" because of his big money transfer from Sportivo Buenos Aires.
