Javier "Javi" Ontiveros Parra (born 9 September 1997) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Málaga CF mainly as a right winger.

Club career

Born in Marbella, Málaga, Andalusia,[1] Ontiveros joined Málaga CF's youth setup in 2010, after spells at CD Vázquez Cultural and Real Betis.[2] On 24 June 2015, without even appearing for the reserves, he was called up by manager Javi Gracia for the pre-season with the main squad.[3]

Ontiveros made his debut as a senior on 22 August 2015, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–0 away win against CD Comarca del Mármol for the Tercera División championship.[4] He scored his first senior goal on 13 September, netting the last in a 2–0 home success over CD Rincón.[5] He scored a brace in a 3–0 win at CD Español del Alquián on 31 October.[6]

On 21 November 2015, Ontiveros made his first team – and La Liga – debut, replacing Arthur Boka in a 0–2 away loss against RCD Espanyol.[7] He only appeared in four league matches during the campaign, all from the bench, but scored 11 goals for the B-team in the fourth division.

On 19 October 2016, Ontiveros scored once and provided two assists for Malaga's U19 team in a 5–0 UEFA Youth League home routing of FC Nitra. He made his first appearance of the 2016–17 season on 4 November 2016, in a 3–2 win against Sporting de Gijón. Having come on in the 57th minute, he assisted Sandro Ramírez in the team's second goal eight minutes later.[8] On 26 November he scored his first professional goal, netting a last-minute winner in a 4–3 home success over Deportivo de La Coruña.[9]
