Francisco Javier García Brítez (born 25 November 1988) is a Paraguayan footballer who plays as a forward for ASD Montello.[1]
Career
[edit]García's career began in Paraguay with Cerro Porteño, with the forward making eight appearances in the 2008 Paraguayan Primera División season.[2] Rubio Ñu signed García in 2009.[1] Thirty-four matches and one goal, versus ex-club Cerro Porteño on 31 October 2009, followed across two seasons.[1][2] He rejoined Cerro Porteño in 2010, before moving to 3 de Febrero in 2011.[1] García then featured in the Paraguayan División Intermedia for both Sport Colombia and Deportivo Capiatá between 2011 and 2012.[2] 2014 saw García sign for Ecuador's Delfín.[1] He scored six goals in Serie B that year, which included his first over UT Cotopaxi.[1]
Two years later, in 2016, García returned to the second tier in Ecuador with Colón.[1] Having featured twenty-six times, García joined Técnico Universitario in 2017.[3] He had scored on two occasions for Colón against them in the previous year, while his first goal for Técnico Universitario arrived on 8 April versus Colón; in a season which ended as champions.[1] In 2018, García switched Ecuador for Colombia by agreeing to play for Leones of Categoría Primera A.[1][4] He made his debut during a home defeat to Alianza Petrolera in July, which was the first of eight overall fixtures as Leones were relegated; he was subsequently released.[1][5]
In August 2019, following a stint with Martín Ledesma, it was confirmed that García had joined Italian Serie D club Calcio Cittanovese.[6] He scored two goals in ten appearances for them.[7] Ahead of January 2020, García signed for Eccellenza Veneto side ASD Montello.[8]
Personal life
[edit]Whilst in Italian football with ASD Montello, García ran into serious financial difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9][10]
