Lucas Rodrigo Biglia (born 30 January 1986) is an Argentine football midfielder, currently playing for RSC Anderlecht.
He has been touted as one of the stars to watch out for in the 2010 World Cup. Biglia has been capped for the Argentina Under-20 team, and won the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, alongside Barcelona's superstar Lionel Messi
He is a player very much in the Andrea Pirlo mold in a defensive midfielder role. He has a good passing range and positional sense and appears to have a good head on his shoulders as the reason he chose the unfashionable Anderlecht instead of one of European big teams is he wants to get games (especially in the UEFA Champions League) and build a name for himself rather than sitting on the bench. As a result, he has been a regular fixture in the Anderlecht starting XI, alonside 2007 recruit Czech Jan Polak.
Lucas Biglia has been chosen as the best player of the season 06/07 by the Anderlecht fans.
