Franco Ezequiel Carboni (born 4 April 2003) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a left-back or left midfielder for Argentine Primera División club River Plate, on loan from Serie A club Inter Milan. Born in Argentina, Carboni represented both Italy and Argentina internationally at youth level.

Carboni started his career in his native Argentina with Lanús, before leaving for Italy at the age of sixteen, when his father accepted the job of youth coordinator at Catania. He only spent five months with Catania before his performances caught the attention of clubs across Europe. He signed for Inter Milan in January 2020.

Having signed a new contract with the Nerazzurri in April 2022, on 11 July 2022 of the same year Carboni was loaned out to Serie B club Cagliari for the rest of the season. On 24 January 2023, he was recalled and subsequently loaned out to Serie A club Monza until the end of the campaign, with the deal including an option-to-buy for Monza and a counter-option for Inter Milan.

On 9 January 2024, Carboni was recalled from Monza and joined Serie B club Ternana on loan for the remainder of the season. On 20 January, he scored his first professional goal in a 3–1 league win over Cittadella.

On 12 July 2024, Carboni returned to Argentina by joining Primera División club River Plate on an 18-month loan, with an option to buy and a buyback clause in favour of Inter.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Carboni is eligible to represent both Italy and Argentina at international level. Having played for the Italy U18 national team in 2021, scoring in a 3–1 friendly win over Austria, he switched allegiance to his native Argentina and was called up to the Argentina national team in 2022.

Franco hails from a footballing family, with father Ezequiel having played for teams in Argentina and Europe. His brother, Valentín, is also a footballer. Carboni holds both Argentine and Italian passports.
