Juan Augusto Huerta (born 22 July 1980, in Isidro Casanova) is a retired Argentine footballer.^[2]

Club career

Huerta has played for Nueva Chicago and Estudiantes de La Plata in the Primera División de Argentina.^[3]

Huerta, nicknamed "the lion", was a significant part of the 2006 championship team, but two major injuries kept him outside the pitch for almost two years. He re-appeared in 2008.

In 2009, he was part of the Estudiantes squad that won the Copa Libertadores 2009 championship, although his only contribution was a brief substitute appearance in their 3–0 win over Libertad in the group stage. After Estudiantes reinforced the midfield, Huerta asked for a transfer, and found a place in Chilean first division side San Luis Quillota.^[4]
