Sergio Daniel Órteman (born September 29, 1978 in Montevideo) is a Uruguayan footballer, who plays as a midfielder for Racing de Santander ^[1] in the Spanish La Liga.

Órteman began his career in Uruguayan club Central Español in 1997. In 2001 he was transferred to Olimpia of Paraguay. A year later, Órteman was part of the Olimpia team that won the 2002 Copa Libertadores (being selected as the most valuable player of the tournament) and the 2003 Recopa Sudamericana.

Órteman then moved to Independiente of Argentina in 2004, but had difficulties making the first team due to several injuries. For the 2005/2006 season, Órteman went on loan to Mexican side CF Atlas. In July 2006, Órteman went back to Independiente. In 2007 Órteman joined Boca Juniors, and won the Copa Libertadores 2007 playing some minutes during the tournament.
