Juan Carlos Olave (born 21 February 1976) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Club Atlético Belgrano as a goalkeeper.

He played most of his career with Belgrano.

Football career

Born in Córdoba in the namesake province, Olave started playing professionally with hometown's Club Atlético Belgrano, also having a brief loan spell in Bolivia with Club Bolívar. After the former was relegated to the second division in 2002 he moved to Club de Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, where he first established as a Primera División player.

In 2004, Olave joined Real Murcia in the Spanish second level, where he served as backup. Upon returning to Gimnasia he continued as a starter, but was relegated to the bench after several off-key performances; his replacement, Carlos Kletnicki, did not convince new manager Francisco Maturana, who required that a new goalkeeper be acquired in the next transfer window, and Sebastián Cejas was brought in from Colo-Colo.

Olave then returned for another spell at Belgrano, in the winter of 2007 – previously, he had been transfer listed by the club which had the player's rights, Murcia, with Club Atlético Vélez Sársfield being the main contender for his services.[1] However, he moved to Belgrano and, on 13 March 2009, eventually reached league 100 games with the club, who still competed in division two.

Belgrano eventually returned to the top flight. On 26 June 2011, in the relegation playoffs against Club Atlético River Plate, he saved a penalty from Mariano Pavone in an eventual 1–1 away draw, with his team winning 3–1 on aggregate and sending the historical Buenos Aires side to the second division for the first time in its history.[2]

In November 2012, during a game between Belgrano and Club Atlético Independiente, Olave was hit by a firecracker thrown onto the field by a fan. The match was suspended.[3]

Personal life

Olave was cousin to musician Rodrigo.[4]
