Jarlín Medardo Quintero León (born 19 August 1993) is a Colombian footballer who plays as a forward for Peruvian club UTC Cajamarca.
He has spent most of his career abroad, representing three clubs each in the Venezuelan Primera División and the Peruvian Primera División.
Career
Born in Magüí Payán in the Nariño Department, Quintero began his career at América de Cali. He played five games in his debut Categoría Primera B season in 2012, scoring once in the first four minutes of a 3–0 home win over Unión Magdalena on 21 May. The team won the Apertura tournament on penalties against that opponent, but lost the overall final by the same method to Alianza Petrolera.
Quintero moved in 2014 to Aragua of the Venezuelan Primera División. In September that year, he and four teammates were affected by the chikungunya virus. He scored 12 goals in the 2014–15 season.
In July 2015, Quintero returned to Colombia, this time to its Categoría Primera A and Cúcuta Deportivo. He went back to Venezuela to play the 2016 season at Carabobo, scoring four goals and signing for Deportivo Lara for the following year.
After a brief spell at Atlético Reynosa in Mexico, Quintero signed for Deportivo Hualgayoc in the Peruvian Segunda División, contributing 14 goals in the 2018 season. Remaining in the same city, he transferred to UTC Cajamarca of the Peruvian Primera División for the following season. On 3 April 2019, he scored on his continental debut to equalise in a 1–1 home draw with Cerro of Uruguay in the first round of the Copa Sudamericana.
Quintero scored 10 goals for Academia Cantolao in the same league in 2020. He played the following season at Sport Huancayo. On 26 September 2021 he missed a penalty kick in a 3–1 home loss to Universitario after opposing goalkeeper José Carvallo taunted him in a way that the Peruvian media likened to the tactics of Argentina international Emiliano Martínez.
In January 2022, Quintero returned to his country's league for the first time in seven years, joining Jaguares de Córdoba. A year later, he went back to Peru's second tier with Deportivo Llacuabamba. In October, in the playoff quarter-finals, he scored a penalty for the only goal of the home second leg against Universidad de San Martín, sending the tie to a penalty shootout in which he netted again in a defeat.
