Miguel Sebastián Garcia, nicknamed "Pitu", (born 27 January 1984 in Santa Fe) is an Argentine football midfielder. He started his career in Unión de Santa Fe, base in his hometown, from which he was loaned firstly to Palestino and subsequently to Iraklis. After being released by Unión de Santa Fe he played for a brief period for Aris in the Greek Superleague, before returning on a free transfer to Iraklis during the 2010 winter transfer window.
Pitu joined Iraklis on loan during the summer of 2007. He made his league debut for his new club in a match against Atromitos for the fifth round of the 2007-08 season, as he replaced Giannis Papadopoulos in the 56th minute of the match. He continued to appear regularly for the club until the end of the season and he even managed to score his first goal for Iraklis, in a match against OFI. It was a crucial, match deciding, goal, scored in the injury time of the match, disengaging Iraklis from the relegation battle. In the end of the season he counted 1 goal out of 20 league appearances.
On 31 August 2009 Pitu signed for Aris on a free transfer. He made his debut for Aris in an 1-1 away draw against Panthrakikos, as he replaced his teammate Neto in the 76th minute. Pitu scored his only goal for Aris in a cup match against Aspropyrgos. He contributed in Aris' campaign as, in a match against AEL, he hit the corner by which his teammate Sebastian Abreu scored the equaliser for his team. He managed to appear in total of 10 matches for Aris before being released by the club on 1 February 2010.
