Club career
Born in Rosario, Santa Fe, Cartabia moved to Spain and Valencia CF at the age of 13, going on to represent several of its youth sides. He made his senior debuts in the 2012–13 season, with the reserves in the third division.
Cartabia started playing with the first team in the 2013 pre-season, after impressing manager Miroslav Đukić. He renewed his contract in late July, with the new link running until June 2017 and having a buyout clause of €20 million.
Cartabia made his debut in La Liga on 17 August 2013, starting and playing 65 minutes in a 1–0 home win against Málaga CF. He scored his first goal(s) for the Che on 24 October, netting a brace in a 5–1 success over FC St. Gallen for the campaign's UEFA Europa League.
On 11 July 2014, Cartabia was loaned out to newly promoted Córdoba CF in a season-long deal with a buyout clause. He made his debut for the Andalusians on 25 August, coming on as a substitute for Daniel Pinillos in a 0–2 loss at Real Madrid; his first goal in the top division arrived five days later, as he scored his team's in a 1–1 home draw against Celta de Vigo.
On 30 July 2015, Cartabia was loaned to another club in the top division, Deportivo de La Coruña, for one year.
