editSan Esteban began his professional playing career in 1992 with Club de Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, he made his league debut on 23 February 1992 in a 2–1 away defeat against Deportivo Español. He went on to make over 300 appearances for the club during his first spell. He joined Nueva Chicago for the 2003–04 season but returned to Gimnasia for a second spell between 2004 and 2009.
