Edwin Rolando Tenorio Montaño (born 16 June 1976 in Esmeraldas) is an Ecuadorian football midfielder who currently plays as a defensive midfielder for Deportivo Quito.
Before playing for his current club, Tenorio played for Sociedad Deportiva Aucas, Barcelona Sporting Club and LDU Quito where he was part of the squad that won the 2007 league championship.
Between 1998 and 2007 he won 78 caps for Ecuador[2] and was called up to the squad to participate in the 2002 FIFA World Cup and the 2006 World Cup.
