In 2008 he joined Envigado and was a top prospect for the club scoring 18 goals in 24 matches with the reserve team. His play while on the books of the Envigado reserve team helped him draw interest from Argentina's Quilmes. He joined Quilmes in 2009 and scored 13 goals in 19 appearances for the club.

Montaño impressed the club and on December 7, 2011 it was announced that he would be joining the club permanently during their inaugural season in Major League Soccer.[7]
Montreal announced in December 2012 that Montaño would not return for the 2013 season.[8]
