Facundo García (born 16 December 1999) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Teruel.

Club career

García started with Olimpo. 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.

On 4 October, García was loaned to Segunda División B with Valencia CF Mestalla. He was sent off on debut during a 2–2 draw away to Atzeneta on 17 October.
