Federico Guillermo Lussenhoff (born 14 January 1974 in Venado Tuerto, Santa Fe) is a retired Argentine footballer who played as a central defender.
In a professional career which lasted almost 20 years, he played in Mexico and Spain, other than in his own country.
Lussenhoff began his career at Rosario Central, and also had spells at Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro, Mexican clubs Toros Neza and Cruz Azul and CD Tenerife and RCD Mallorca in Spain.
In the latter country, to where he arrived in January 1999, he was relegated from La Liga in his first season, then became an undisputed starter as the Canary Islands outfit returned to the top flight in 2001, under Rafael Benítez. With its Balearic Islands neighbours, he managed to be relatively used during his two years, helping the side win the 2003 Spanish cup.
In 2005, after nearly 200 official games in five 1/2 seasons, Lussenhoff returned to his country and joined Club Atlético River Plate, before dropping down to the second division in 2008, joining Talleres de Córdoba. In January 2010, he returned to Spain as he joined compatriot Nestor Gorosito - coach - at Xerez CD, as director of football.
