Club career[]

Montaño began his career in the youth ranks of Deportivo Pereira in 2006 before moving to Selección Palmira the following season. In 2008, he joined Envigado and was a top prospect for the club scoring 18 goals in 24 matches with the reserve team. His play while on the books of the Envigado reserve team helped him draw interest from Argentina's Quilmes. He joined Quilmes in 2009 and scored 13 goals in 19 appearances for the club.

On March 17, 2010, Montaño joined Seattle Sounders FC on loan from Quilmes.[1][2][3] He made his debut for the club in a 4-0 loss at home to the Los Angeles Galaxy.[4] On March 14, 2011, Seattle announced that they had re-signed Montaño.[5]

Montreal announced in December 2012 that Montaño would not return for the 2013 season.[8]

In July 2014, Montaño rejoined his first professional club Quilmes in Argentine Primera División.[9]

Miguel Montano joined Victoria Hotspurs after trials in the BOV Premier League in Malta during the summer months. Montano was very present throughout September in the first matches of the Gozo Championship 2015/2016.[10]

On 28 January 2019, Victoria Hotspurs announced, that they had re-signed Miguel for the rest of the 2018/19 season.[11] Migual had been away from the club since the end of the 2015/16 season, and had meanwhile been playing for Orsomarso in his home country.[12]
