Miguel Sebastián "Pitu" García (born 27 January 1984), sometimes known as just "Pitu", is an Argentine former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.[1]
Pitu was born in Santa Fe. He started his career in Unión de Santa Fe,[2] base in his hometown, from which he was loaned firstly to Palestino[3] [4] and subsequently to Iraklis.[2] After being released by Unión de Santa Fe he played for a brief period for Aris in the Greek Superleague, before returning on a free transfer to Iraklis during the 2010 winter transfer window.
Pitu joined Iraklis on loan during the summer of 2007. He made his league debut for his new club in a match against Atromitos for the fifth round of the 2007–08 season, replacing Giannis Papadopoulos in the 56th minute of the match.[5] He continued to appear regularly for the club until the end of the season and he even managed to score his first goal for Iraklis, in a match against OFI.[6] It was a crucial, match deciding, goal, scored in the injury time of the match, disengaging Iraklis from the relegation battle.[6] In the end of the season he counted 1 goal out of 20 league appearances.
On 31 August 2009, Pitu signed for Aris on a free transfer.[7] He made his debut for Aris in a 1–1 away draw against Panthrakikos, as he replaced his teammate Neto in the 76th minute.[8] Pitu scored his only goal for Aris in a cup match against Aspropyrgos.[9] He contributed in Aris' campaign as, in a match against AEL, he hit the corner by which his teammate Sebastian Abreu scored the equaliser for his team.[10] He managed to appear in total of 10 matches for Aris before being released by the club on 1 February 2010.[11]
On the very same day of his release Pitu signed a contract with former club Iraklis.[12] The debut in this second spell for Iraklis was made in a local derby match against PAOK that ended 1–1.[13] Until the end of the season he featured in a total of ten games for Iraklis.
Following the Iraklis's relegation, he joined Greek First Division side Atromitos on 29 June 2011, signing a two-year contract.[14]
On 5 August 2019, Pitu signed for PAS Giannina on a free transfer.[15] He appeared in total of 9 matches, 7 in the championship and 2 in the Greek Cup. After the end of a match against Levadiakos, he announced his decision to retire from football.[16]
