Club career

García started with Olimpo.[4] He was an unused substitute for an Argentine Primera División match with Newell's Old Boys in May 2017, prior to being reintroduced into the first-team in February 2018 and making his professional debut on 5 March during a 1–0 defeat to Estudiantes.[5][6] On 9 July 2018, García was transferred to Spanish side Leganés; signing a five-year contract.[7] In the following August, he was loaned out to AEK Larnaca of the Cypriot First Division.[1] He was part of the squad that won the 2018 Super Cup against APOEL.[8] He went back to Leganés in June 2019, though would rejoin AEK on loan on 29 August.[9]

García returned to Leganés at the end of June 2020, having made forty-five appearances for AEK Larnaca across two seasons; he also scored his first senior goal in the process, netting in a 5–2 away win over Ethnikos Achna on 11 January 2020.[1][10] On 4 October, García was loaned to Segunda División B with Valencia CF Mestalla.[11] He was sent off on debut during a 2–2 draw away to Atzeneta on 17 October.[1]

On 6 August 2021, García moved to Primera División RFEF side CE Sabadell FC on a one-year loan.[12]
