On 10 June 2007, Ustari scored from a penalty kick against Quilmes Atlético Club, also leaving the pitch injured and going on to miss the year's Copa América. One month later, he signed for Getafe CF in Spain for €4 million, teaming up with compatriot and goalkeeper Roberto Abbondanzieri. His official debut came on 26 September 2007, in a 1–2 La Liga loss at Valencia CF.
