Miguel Ángel Estay Peña (born 2 May 1991) is a Chilean former footballer who played as a midfielder for clubs in Chile and Tahiti.

A left-footed playmaker from the Deportes La Serena youth system,[1] where he came at the age of 14,[2] Estay played on loan at Deportes Linares in the 2012 Chilean Tercera A.[3] He permanently played for Deportes La Serena between 2013 and 2014.[4][5]

From 2014 to 2016, he played for Deportes Ovalle in the Segunda División Profesional.[6][7] In the second half of 2016, he switched to Provincial Ovalle in the same city,[8] winning the Tercera B league title and earning promotion.[9]

In 2017, he emigrated to French Polynesia and signed with AS Central Sport in the Tahiti Ligue 1 alongside César Castillo, after they were spotted by the President and the assistant coach and player of the team, Efraín Araneda, in Ovalle, Chile.[10] In the squad, they coincided with his compatriots Sergio Sandoval and Diego Cifuentes, in addition to Araneda.[2] All of them took part in the 2017 OFC Champions League, with Estay scoring against both Madang FC[11] and Lupe o le Soaga.[12]

Back in Chile, he played for Colchagua in the Segunda División Profesional, his last club.[13]
