Career
Garate was a part of River Plate's youth system, notably playing for the U20s at the 2012 U-20 Copa Libertadores in Peru; which the club won.[1] Garate began playing for Tigre in the 2013–14 Argentine Primera División season, making his senior debut on 18 November 2013 during a 2–1 win over Newell's Old Boys.[1] In the following 2014 campaign, Garate scored goals against Godoy Cruz and Lanús as Tigre qualified for the 2015 Copa Sudamericana.[1] In August 2016, Garate joined 1. divisjon side Sandefjord.[1] He departed five months later having not featured, though he was an unused substitute for a fixture with Bryne.[1]
2017 saw Garate switch Norway for Argentina as he agreed to sign for Deportivo Rincón of Torneo Federal B.[1][3] Eight goals in twenty fixtures followed.[4] Primera B Nacional's Brown completed the signing of Garate in January 2018.[1][5] His first appearance arrived on 3 February versus Deportivo Morón, which preceded his first goal for them a week later against Atlético de Rafaela.[1] Garate was loaned to Arsenal de Sarandí in January 2019.[1] He scored five goals in twelve matches for them, including the winning strike in the championship play-off against Sarmiento; which secured Arsenal promotion and the title.[6]
July 2019 saw Garate leave Arsenal, and subsequently Brown, to move to Chile with Barnechea of Primera B.[1][2] He scored twice on his first home start against Deportes Copiapó on 16 August, which preceded a goal against San Luis and a brace versus Rangers across eleven appearances in his first five months.[1] On 2021 season, he joined club Coquimbo Unido.[7]
