Career edit
A native of Buenos Aires, Monzón (also known as Torta) began playing football with local side Club Atlético Huracán. He was the club's primary goalkeeper from 2007 to 2014. A move to San Marcos de Arica in Chile that was marred by injury followed.[1]
After he retired from playing, Monzón became a goalkeeping coach. He made a surprise Primera B Metropolitana appearance for Club Atlético Fénix during the 2022 tournament, when the club's starting and reserve goalkeepers were unavailable due to injury. Club Comunicaciones capitalized on a Monzón error en route to a 2-1 victory over Fénix.[2]
