Career

Quiroga started his youth career with local club Jorge Newbery de Rojas, prior to a seven-year spell with El Huracan.[2] Further periods with San Lorenzo, Lanús and Academia Griffa followed before he joined Sarmiento in 2009; he was promoted into the senior squad soon after.[2] In 2012, Quiroga was loaned to Torneo Argentino C's Villa Belgrano for two seasons.[3][4] He returned to Primera B Nacional side Sarmiento for 2013–14, a season which yielded one goal in ten matches.[1] In July 2014, Rosario Central signed Quiroga.[1][5] Although, after not featuring in his first six months for Rosario Central, he was loaned back to Sarmiento in 2015.[1]

Sarmiento, now an Argentine Primera División team, selected Quiroga eight times before allowing him to return to his parent club.[1] 2016 saw him leave Rosario Central on loan again, this time joining Instituto in Primera B Nacional.[1][6] Seven appearances followed in all competitions.[1] In January 2018, Quiroga left Argentine football to play for San José of the Bolivian Primera División.[1][7] He departed months later without playing, in part due to contractual issues; which later brought a lawsuit.[8][9] Quiroga signed for Liga Nacional B's Industrial Avilés in July 2018.[10] In early 2019, Quiroga joined fellow second tier team Real Tomayapo.[11]

Quiroga went back to Argentina with Colegiales on 1 July 2019.[12]
