Career
Zárate joined the youth system of Vélez Sarsfield at the age of seven.[3][4] He scored over fifty goals for their academy.[5] Zárate was promoted to their first-team squad for the start of 2020 under manager Gabriel Heinze, initially appearing as an unused substitute for Primera División matches with Gimnasia y Esgrima and Aldosivi towards the end of January.[2] He made his senior debut on 4 February during a Copa Sudamericana first stage first leg encounter with Ecuador's Aucas, after replacing Lucas Robertone with eighteen minutes left.[2] Zárate again featured off the bench in the second leg two weeks later.[2]
On 5 October 2020, Zárate was announced as a loan signing by Primeira Liga side Famalicão; initially penning terms until December 2021, having also extended his Vélez contract until June 2023.[6][7][8] He would only feature for the Portuguese club's U23s in Liga Revelação.[9] He made his reserve debut on 12 November against Leixões, before scoring twice in a 2–2 draw away to Académica on 5 December; his last league appearance came on 15 January 2021 versus Belenenses SAD.[9][10][11] Zárate returned to Vélez Sarsfield in February, before departing on loan to Primera Nacional with Deportivo Morón on 11 March.[12][13]
After a short term loaned at Coquimbo Unido in the Chilean Primera División, he returned to Deportivo Morón in June 2022.[14]
In 2023, he joined Arsenal de Sarandí on loan until December.[15]
Personal life
Zárate is the son of former footballer Rolando Zárate.[16] He is also the nephew of footballers Mauro, Sergio and Ariel.[16][17]
From his paternal line, he is of Chilean descent due to the fact that his grandfather, Juvenal, was born in Chuquicamata, Chile.[18]
