Carlos Luna is an Argentine football striker. He was born on January 17, 1982, in the city of Piquillín in the Córdoba Province of Argentina. He currently plays for Elche CF in Spain.

Luna started his career in 2000 in the 3rd tier of Argentine football with Deportivo Español. In 2001-2002 he was part of the squad that won promotion to the Primera B Nacional where he played for one season before dropping back down a division to play for All Boys in 2003-2004 and Club Atlético Tigre in 2004-2005.

Luna was signed by Racing Club de Avellaneda of the Primera Division Argentina for the 2005-2006 season but was offloaded to Quilmes in 2006.

During his time at Quilmes the club endured one of their worst and most embarrassing seasons finishing bottom of the table with only 21 pionts. Despite the weakness of the team Luna managed to score seven goals in the Clausura 2007 tournament, bringing him to the attention of Elche and prompting his move to Spain during the June-July 2007 transfer window.
