Career

Shea is a graduate of Independiente.[2][3] In June 2018, Shea agreed a loan move to Primera B Metropolitana side Colegiales.[2][4] His professional football debut came in a defeat away from home to UAI Urquiza on 29 August, which preceded further appearances in goalless draws with Justo José de Urquiza and Deportivo Riestra in 2018–19; though he'd return to his parent Primera División team Independiente mid-season.[2] Shea was immediately loaned back out, as he joined Ferrocarril Midland in Primera C Metropolitana.[5][6] He remained for six months in tier four, but only appeared twice in competitive action.[4][7][8]

On 3 August 2019, Shea switched Argentina for Greece after agreeing terms with Chania regional league side Paleochora.[9] He renewed his contract twelve months later, following the club's promotion to the Gamma Ethniki.[10] In April 2021, Shea joined fellow country club AEP Kozani.[11]
