He had been mentioned among the more coveted young players in European football by The Times of London. At the age of 19, Quintero already started to receive praise for his impressive performances during his time in Italy. During his time of the 2013 South American Youth Championship, he had been recognized as not only one of the most promising youth prospects from South America, but the world. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

Quintero has represented Colombia since he was 19, making his official debut in 2012 against Cameroon. At the 2013 South American Youth Championships, he led Colombia to their third title while voted as the tournament's MVP for contributing more than any other player for his respective nation. [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] He also took part in the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey where he gained more praise for his talents after creating a huge impact in the tournament. [14] [15] Quintero went on to represent Colombia in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, where he scored his first world cup goal against Ivory Coast in a group stage match on 19 June 2014. In the 2018 FIFA World Cup he scored against Japan, becoming the first Colombian to score in two FIFA World Cup competitions.

His overall size and style of play as well as his left-foot has led him to be compared to Lionel Messi. [14] [16]

Club career

Envigado

Born in Medellín, Colombia, he joined the youth squad for Envigado after an impressive performance during a youth tournament that took place in Medellin. [17]

At the end of the 2010 season, Quintero helped Envigado retain their place in the Categoría Primera A. [18] He scored in the first match of the relegation play-offs, defeating Deportivo Pasto 1–0. [19] In the second play-off match, he suffered an injury, fracturing his tibia. [20] Despite this, his team beat Deportivo Pasto 2–0, and 3–0 in aggregate. [21]

Atlético Nacional

Quintero joined the ranks of Atlético Nacional in January 2012. [22]

Loan to Pescara

Months after joining Nacional, Quintero then joined Serie A club Pescara for a fee of $2 millions, [23] wasting no time in impressing European scouts. [24] [25] On 23 September 2012, he scored his first goal in a 1–1 draw against Bologna. [26] [27]

It was reported in early 2013 that Inter Milan and Udinese have confirmed their bidding interest. Although Udinese was the only club to have made an official bid. [28]

In early April 2013, it was reported that Quintero suffered an injury and would be out for a month. In mid May 2013, Quintero posted on Twitter 'goodbye and thank you' to Pescara, hinting that he was to leave in the Italian side in the summer. While Pescara claimed that he has not been 'sold', it hinted Quintero's desire to leave the club overall. [29] [30]

Porto

In June 2013, Quintero joined Porto from Pescara for €5 million, with the Italian club retaining 50% of the economic rights. [31] Quintero signed a four-year contract with a release clause of €40 million. [31]

Quintero made his first full debut appearance in the 2013 Emirates Cup against Napoli. He assisted Porto's first goal. [32]

2013–14 season

Quintero training with FC Porto in 2014

Quintero's first 'official' match with Porto began with the 2013 Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira, where he came on as a sub after 76 minutes when Porto were already ahead by 3–0. Porto went on to win the match, thus giving Quintero's very first silverware not only in Europe, but in his club career. [33]

Quintero debut in his first league match for the club against Vitoria Setubal, coming on as a sub and scoring less than a minute later. [34] Quintero provided his first assist for the club two weeks later against P. Ferreira in a 1–0 victory. [35] In a match against Vitória de Guimarães, Quintero drew a penalty that was successfully converted, thus granting him an assist in a 1–0 home victory. Quintero came in on the 90th minute against F.C. Arouca where he was then fouled near the box. He then converted an impressive free kick goal, seconds after only coming in. [36]

In late October, Quintero suffered a hamstring injury, expecting to be out for a month. [37] Following his return in December, Quintero requested to play with the B-squad in order to keep his fitness up if he was not able to get guarantee minutes with the A-squad. [38] [39]

After a long period of matches spent solely on the bench, or coming on as a late substitute during Paulo Fonseca's time as manager, averaging around 20 minutes per game in the league, Quintero found his way back into the team after new manager Luís Castro took over in March 2014. Quintero's next significant performance was against Napoli in the Europa League, where he came close to scoring his first goal in European competition, when a Napoli defender's clearance rebounded off his leg and hit the post.

Quintero scored his third goal of the season against Belenenses, coming on as a half time substitute and setting up several opportunities for teammate and fellow countryman Jackson Martínez, but eventually it would be Quintero who decided the game with the only goal in a 1–0 victory.

Quintero made his first 90-minute appearance for Porto on 6 April 2014, in a home match against Académica. He provided somewhat of an assist, again for Jackson Martinez, when he was fouled in the box in the 38th minute, which resulted in a converted Jackson Martínez penalty. Quintero then scored his fourth goal of the season a week later, in the 91st minute in a 3–1 victory over S.C. Braga, after a counterattack which he started.

On 21 April, Quintero came on as a second-half substitute against fellow northerners Rio Ave and made a significant impact to the match. [40] He was involved in all three of the goals, but only got one direct assist. A chipped through ball to Jackson Martinez resulted in him being brought down for a penalty, which Martínez scored. Next, he assisted Héctor Herrera's header with a chipped through ball. The third goal of the game came from Porto right back Danilo, who scored a deflected free kick after Quintero had been fouled just outside the box.

2014–15 season

Quintero missed Porto's first league game of the season due to a death in his family, but returned to the Porto squad for the next league match versus Paços de Ferreira. Coming on for the injured Cristian Tello, he provided an assist, yet again for fellow Colombian Jackson Martínez, for the only goal in a 1–0 victory for Porto.

Quintero scored his first goal of the season against F.C. Arouca from long distance, Porto ended up winning 0–5. [41]

On 16 December 2014, Porto purchased the remaining 50% economic rights of Quintero from Pescara for €4.5 million, giving them complete ownership of him. [42]

Loan to Rennes

2015–16

In August 2015, Quintero signed a season-long loan with Ligue 1 side Rennes. [43] Quintero made his debut against Nice, coming on as a sub and providing an assist in a 1–4 loss. [44] Quintero would eventually score his first goal for the club in the match against SM Caen, resulting in a 1–1 draw. [45]

Quintero stated in an interview that he intended to return to Porto after his loan ended, despite rumors linking him to a permanent transfer. [46]

Loan to Independiente Medellín

2016

On 18 September 2016, Quintero returned to the top flight Colombian league on loan, joining Independiente Medellín from Porto on a one-year contract. [47] On 9 August 2017, his loan was extended through December 2017. [48]

Loan to River Plate

On 24 January 2018, Quintero joined Argentine club River Plate on loan for one year and got the number 8. [49] The deal was settled for €300,000 and included a buyout clause of €5 million. [50] [51] On 9 December 2018, in the second leg of the 2018 Copa Libertadores finals against rivals Boca Juniors, Quintero scored a goal in extra time from outside the box to put River Plate up 2–1, then assisted Pity Martinez in the 120th minute to seal the game at 3–1 and earn River Plate their fourth Copa Libertadores. [52] He later got a tattoo on his calf for this occasion in January 2019. [53] That same month, he announced that he would continue with River for the 2019 season, putting to rest any rumors surrounding a potential move to China, and praising coach Marcelo Gallardo, saying he was "like a father to me." [54]

River Plate

2019

River Plate made the transfer for Quintero for a fee of €3.5 million. After the departure of Pity Martinez to the MLS, Quintero took the number 10 jersey. [55] In February 2019, he renewed his contract until June 2022 and included a buyout clause of €30 million. [56] In August 2019, he was nominated for the 2019 FIFA Puskás Award for his goal scored against Racing Club. [57] His goal eventually finished third, behind second place Lionel Messi, and winner Dániel Zsóri. [58]

Australian U-20 coach, Paul Okon praising Quintero following a 1–1 draw against Colombia in the U-20 FIFA World Cup. [76]

Quintero played an entertaining opening match performance of the U-20 FIFA World Cup that was held in Turkey. He made impressive shots with his free kicks as well as creating impressive chances.

However, Colombia went on to lose on penalties eventually where he scored one in a 7–8 loss. [80] Despite Colombia failing to progress, Quintero was praised as the best player in the group stages. [81] [15]

His goal against El Salvador was later voted as best goal of the tournament. [82]

Quintero expressed great interest in representing Colombia in 2016 for the Olympics in Brazil. [83]

In February 2016, Quintero was called up to play back to back friendlies against Honduras. He made his debut in the first match resulting in a 1–1 draw. Days later in the second match, he scored with a free kick in a 2–2 draw. [84]

His goal against Japan was voted the second best goal of the tournament, after Benjamin Pavard's goal against Argentina. [89]

Style of play

"Colombia’s Juan Quintero was exceptional. He could go on to become a player on a par with Lionel Messi. The composure he displayed was unbelievable for such a young player. Without a doubt he will go on to become one of the stars of the game."

Former footballer Kubilay Türkyilmaz's view on Quintero from the 2013 U-20 FIFA World Cup. [15]

Quintero is well known for his creativity for playmaking and as a supportive player in general. [4] [5] His ball control and dribbling has stood him out from most players his age as well as his free kicks, which he has shown to be profound in. [90] Left footed, Quintero is sometimes considered to be another 'James Rodríguez' due to their similar traits (as well as being only 2 years younger, while also playing for the youth national squads of Colombia after Rodriguez's time), although Rodriguez plays more of a forward midfielder/winger whereas Quintero plays more in a neutral mid-center position. This means that he fully commits to a playmaker role, although he does contain remarkable dribbling ability and carries high accuracy with shots on goal

Due to his size, Quintero naturally has a lower center of gravity allowing him to have higher balance, agility, and speed similar to that of Lionel Messi. Despite many other young talents drawing comparisons to Messi as well, Quintero is highlighted to be a very 'close replica' to the point where he also been referenced to a 'Diego Maradona' as well. Although all these are natural comparisons due to the fact that he can also effectively run with the ball in limited spaces, and maintain a very sharp technical mindset to that of the Argentinean legends themselves. However, despite the comparisons, Quintero does not carry the strength of Maradona nor is he balanced with his weak foot like Messi. [14] [16] [91] [92] [93]

Although, Quintero states that his main inspiration was from watching Brazilian legend Rivaldo as a child. [94]
