Career

[edit]

García played in Vélez Sarsfield's youth.[3] Deportivo Merlo were García's first senior club.[4] He scored one goal in twenty-one fixtures in 2008–09 in Primera B Metropolitana, as the club won promotion via the play-offs.[4] In 2009, Godoy Cruz of the Primera División signed García.[1] His first appearance came in a win over Atlético Tucumán on 12 March 2010, which was the first of nine appearances in 2009–10.[1] He remained for two more seasons, as he also scored his first goal in April 2011 during a win at the Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti against River Plate.[1][5][6] García had a 2012–13 stint with Quilmes but didn't play.[1]

In January 2014, García completed a move to Primera B Nacional's Brown.[1] His first season concluded with relegation to tier three, as he appeared seven times under Pablo Vicó.[1][7] García remained for the 2014 Primera B Metropolitana, prior to departing to Chacarita Juniors on 9 January 2015.[1][8][9][10] Thirteen appearances followed across seven months, before he rejoined Deportivo Merlo on loan in July.[1] The club were soon relegated, though García stayed for two seasons in Primera C Metropolitana.[4][11] 2017 saw García join Colegiales.[1] He made his bow against Tristán Suárez, with goal one following versus Barracas Central.[1]
