Mario Alberto Arteaga (born November 29, 1970 in Guadalajara, Jalisco) is a retired professional footballer from Mexico. He played as a forward during his career, beginning with Chivas in the 1990-91 season.[1] During the following year, Arteaga led Chivas with 9 goals[2] as the club reached the playoff phase. He struggled to recapture that form, however, scoring only 5 goals the next year and 3 goals with León during the 1993-94 season as his top-flight career began to wind down.[2]

Arteaga was also a member of the Mexico national under-23 football team competing at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. He appeared twice in the tournament, coming off the bench against Australia and playing from the start against Ghana.[3]
