Gonzalo Alejandro Crettaz

Gonzalo Alejandro Crettaz Ortega (born 28 February 2000), sometimes known simply as Gonzalo, is an Argentine footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for club NEC.

Club career Born in Buenos Aires, Crettaz moved to Spain at early age and joined Málaga CF's youth setup in 2017, from Levante UD. He made his senior debut with the reserves on 25 August 2019, starting in a 4–0 Tercera División away routing of Alhaurín de la Torre CF.

On 16 November 2019, as Munir was out on international duty, Crettaz made his first team debut by playing the full 90 minutes of a 0–1 loss at AD Alcorcón in the Segunda División championship. On 17 August 2021, after being mainly a third-choice option in the main squad, he was loaned to Primera División RFEF side CD Badajoz, for one year.

On 15 August 2022, Crettaz was transferred to UD Logroñés also in the third division. On 7 July 2023, after suffering relegation, he moved to fellow league team CD Castellón on a two-year deal, and was an undisputed starter as the club achieved promotion to the second division.

On 10 June 2025, despite still remaining a first-choice, Crettaz left the Orelluts as his contract was due to expire.

On the next day, Crettaz signed a three-year contract with NEC in the Dutch top-tier Eredivisie, reuniting with his former Castellón manager Dick Schreuder. Robin Roefs, who was NEC's first-choice goalkeeper in the previous season, moved to the Premier League in the off-season. Crettaz established himself as the main goalkeeper at NEC in the 2025–26 season, as the club finished the season in 3rd place, earning a spot in the Champions League qualifying rounds for the first time in club's history.
