Juan Carlos Quintero Pérez (born February 20, 1978) is a retired Colombian footballer who played as a midfielder.

He began his career coming up from Envigado's youth ranks and made his professional debut in the 1999 season. He played at many top Colombian clubs like Millonarios, Atlético Junior, Independiente Medellín, and Independiente Santa Fe. [1]

Some of the best spells of his career were at Junior, where he was part of the championship squad in the 2004 Clausura, and with Independiente Santa Fe where he won the 2009 Copa Colombia. He was also an important player in his sole season with Independiente Medellin in 2008, where he scored important goals in the latter stages of the season to help the team reach the finals, like the winner in a match against La Equidad,[2] where they eventually finished runner-up to America de Cali.

Quintero played for Colombia at the 1993 FIFA World Youth Championship in Australia aged 15.[3]
