Juan Gabriel Celaya (born 14 February 1992) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a defender for Club Atlético Acassuso.[1][2]

Career[edit]

Celaya began in the youth of his local side Unión de Arroyo Seco.[3] His senior career began with Tigre in 2010, but he left two years later to sign for Primera B Metropolitana team Villa Dálmine.[1][3] He went onto make ninety-three league appearances and scored four goals between 2012 and 2016 for the club, nine of those appearances and one of those goals came in the promotion-winning (to Primera B Nacional) season of 2014.[1] In 2016, Celaya had two loan spells away from Villa Dálmine. Firstly, on 6 January, Celaya joined Argentine Primera División side Quilmes.[1][3]

He participated in twelve league fixtures for Quilmes before terminating his loan due to disagreements with the club.[4] In June 2016, Celaya joined another Primera División team, Arsenal de Sarandí, on loan.[1][4] He made his debut for Arsenal on 27 August against Sarmiento.[1] Celaya made just one further appearance before returning to his parent club.[1] Celaya made his 100th career appearance for Villa Dálmine on 12 November 2017 versus Estudiantes.[1] Celaya made a move to fellow Primera B Nacional squad Deportivo Morón in June 2018.[1]

In December 2019, Celaya signed with Primera B Metropolitana side Club Atlético Acassuso.[5]
