John Jairo Castillo (born April 20, 1984, in Cali, Colombia) is a Colombian football Striker, who currently plays for Club Universidad de Guadalajara in the Mexican second division, Ascenso MX.

Castillo's first name is sometimes spelled Jhon and his nickname is "Tigrillo". He signed with the team in January 2008 on a long-team contract. He has played for numerous Colombian teams such as Deportes Tolima in the Copa Mustang and also for Bolivian club Oriente Petrolero and most recently for Venezuelan club Guaros de Lara FC. Recently the criticism in Chile over his poor play reached its peak when he missed a goal in the playoffs which found him wide open on an empty net.
