Carlos Germán Arangio (born May 23, 1977) is a professional football player from Argentina.

Playing for Racing Club de Avellaneda, Arangio made his First Division debut in 1994. He represented Argentina as part of the U-20 team that won the 1995 FIFA World Youth Championship. He then transferred to Mexico where he played for Toros Neza in the Primera División from 1996 to 2000.[1]

On April 1, 1997 Arangio was involved in an infamous incident during an international friendly between Toros Neza and the Jamaican national team. After he responded to a bad tackle by punching his opponent, a five minute brawl ensued and the match was called off.[2]

For the 2000-2001 season he was transferred to Atlante, before returning to Toros Neza for 2001-2002, and then Club Zacatepec in 2002-2003. Arangio then relocated to the United Arab Emirates where he played for the Emirates Club from 2003 to 2005, before returning to Argentina to play 12 matches for Club Atlético Huracán in 2005 and 2006. He then transferred to Chile to play for Audax Italiano and then Club Deportivo Palestino.[1]

On February 15, 2007 it was confirmed that he was signed to América de Cali in Colombia[3]. He then returned to Argentina to play for Alumni de Villa María of the 3rd division interior.
