Club career
He had been playing throughout his youth at Barcelona and El Nacional. At the start of the 2010-2011 season, he signed a three year-contract with the First Division-team KAA Gent.
Edson Eli’s youth team, El Nacional, sold the 19-years old attaquer to KAA Gent at an unknown transfer price. The transfer gave KAA Gent, according to a press article of the team, the possibility to add a young promising player to the team. Montaño plays as leader of the Ecuadorian selection and has been playing the international contest of players younger than 20 years in Spain (el Torneo Internacional sub 20 de l'Alcúdia). On the ninth matchday, he was in the starting team in the game against STVV and by this, he made his début in the first team of AA Gent.
In January 2012, Montaño returned to his native Ecuador to play for his old team Barcelona.
