Template:Spanish name Gerardo Amílcar Ortiz Zarza (born 25 March 1989) is a Paraguayan footballer who plays for Sol de América as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Ortiz was born in Encarnación, and joined Quilmes' youth setup in 2004, aged 15.[1] In June 2010 he signed his first professional deal with the club,[2] being subsequently loaned to Rubio Ñu for one year.[3]

On 20 October 2010 Ortiz made his professional debut, starting in a 1–3 home loss against Libertad for the Paraguayan Primera División championship.[4] He was also a starter four days later, in a 0–3 loss at 3 de Febrero;[5] it were his two only appearances of the campaign.

In the 2011 summer Ortiz returned to Quilmes,[6] being assigned to the reserve team. In February 2012 he signed for Olimpia,[7] but never appeared in any first team match for the club.

On 7 January 2013 Ortiz moved to Sol de América also in the top division.[8] Initially a backup to Roberto Acosta, he overtook him in the 2014 season, but was again demoted to second-choice in 2015.
