Gastón Eduardo Montero (born 23 March 1986) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Almirante Brown.[2]
Montero started his career with Primera División side Vélez Sarsfield.[3] After five top-flight appearances for the club, Montero moved across the division in 2008 to Gimnasia y Esgrima.[3] He participated in five fixtures in both the 2007–08 and 2008–09 campaigns.[2] [3] Montero departed midway through the latter, signing for Los Andes of Primera B Nacional.[4] He scored on his debut for them, netting in a 3–2 victory over Defensa y Justicia on 13 February 2009.[2] [5] A further goal against Instituto arrived in eighteen total appearances.[2] Montero split his time in 2009–10 with San Martín namesakes from San Juan and San Miguel de Tucumán.[2]
After spending twelve months with Platense in Primera B Metropolitana, Montero completed a move to Estudiantes on 13 July 2011.[2] [3] [6] His first goal for them came in a 1–1 draw on 14 October 2012 with Brown, a fixture that also saw him sent off in stoppage time.[2] Deportivo Morón became Montero's eighth team in mid-2014, though the defender would depart in the succeeding January to fellow third tier outfit Deportivo Riestra.[2] [7] Eighty-seven matches and three goals came across 2015, 2016 and 2016–17, with the latter concluding with promotion via the play-offs; though they were subsequently relegated back after one season.[8] [9]
After one hundred and fifty-one appearances and four goals in five years with Riestra, Montero departed in August 2020 to Almirante Brown; reuniting with Jorge Benítez, who managed Montero at Riestra between July 2016 and September 2018.[10] [11]
