Leandro Agustín Ojeda (born 23 July 2001) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a left-back for San Telmo.

## Club career
### Early career and Colón

Born in Sáenz Peña in the Chaco Province of Argentina, Ojeda first took at interest after his grandmother gave him a football as a gift for his first birthday. His first club in organised football was Club Atlético Sportivo, with whom he would travel to various locations across Argentina, playing in youth tournaments, and earned a trial with professional side Argentinos Juniors. He also played for local sides Escuela Los Amigos and Rey del Norte, before successfully trialling with Colón in the city of Charata.
In 2019, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina, Ojeda left Colón; as the club were unable to provide a wage or a place to live, he returned home to live with his parents. However, he returned to the club in 2021, earning a place in the reserve team as a starter, and being given an apartment by the club.
On 26 June 2022, Ojeda made his debut for Colón when he came on as a half-time substitute for Tomás Moschión in a 1–0 Argentine Primera División loss to Huracán. Following injuries to both Rafael Delgado and Andrew Teuten, Ojeda was given a run in the first team, playing five games in July 2022. He signed his first professional contract with the club the following month.
The following year, Ojeda was demoted to the reserve squad by then-manager Marcelo Saralegui, a decision which surprised fans. Seemingly in response, Ojeda posted an update to his personal Twitter account, stating: "No es momento de tirar la toalla!!" ("This is not the time to throw in the towel!!"). Following the departure of Saralegui, new manager Néstor Gorosito recalled Ojeda to the first team, and he was named on the bench for a Copa de la Liga Profesional fixture against Independiente on 18 August 2023, though he did not feature.

### San Telmo

Having been demoted to the Colón reserve team by manager Marcelo Saralegui, Ojeda did not feature for the senior squad in the first half of the 2023 season. Following Saralegui's departure from the club, new manager Néstor Gorosito recalled him to the first team, though he only featured on the bench. At the conclusion of the season, he was released by the club, and went on to join Primera Nacional side San Telmo in January 2024.
