Club career

Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Montes graduated from the youth academy of Sporting de Gijón. On 7 February 2016, he made his debut for the reserves, coming on as a substitute of Cyril Dreyer in a 1–0 defeat against Racing de Ferrol.[1] On 13 March, he scored his first goal for the club in a 2–1 victory over UD Logroñés.[2]

In order to get more playing time, Montes joined CD Lealtad on a loan deal on 13 January 2017.[3] On 12 July, he was loaned out to UP Langreo.[4] He scored 25 goals during the season,[5] which included hat-tricks against CD Mosconia,[6] Club Siero and CD Colunga.[7]

On 31 July 2018, Montes moved abroad and joined Cypriot First Division club AC Omonia on a three-year contract.[8] He made his professional debut on 25 August, starting in a 1–0 home win over Alki Oroklini, and scored his first goal on 4 May 2019, in a 3–2 away loss against AEL Limassol.

On 6 August 2019, Montes returned to his home country and was loaned to CF Badalona in the third division, for one year.[9] He moved to fellow Cypriot side Nea Salamina Famagusta FC on 14 September 2020, also on loan.[10]

On 24 December 2020, Montes signed a contract with Unionistas de Salamanca CF back in his country's third tier.[11] He immediately became a regular starter for the side, scoring six goals in the 2021–22 Primera División RFEF.

On 28 June 2022, Montes agreed to a deal with Primera Federación side CD Eldense.[12] He contributed with seven goals in 40 matches overall during the campaign, as the club returned to Segunda División after a 59-year absence.[13]
