He was considered a key part of the national side by former coach Diego Maradona who stated that his team was just Mascherano, Messi, Jonás and eight more. He appeared for Argentina in the 2010 World Cup.

Velez and Mallorca
Born in Sáenz Peña, Buenos Aires, Gutiérrez played for Vélez Sársfield in Argentina between 2001 and 2005. The highlight of his Vélez career was being part of the team that won the Primera División Argentina Clausura Tournament in 2005.
After winning the title in 2005 he signed with RCD Mallorca.
On 1 July 2008, Gutiérrez unilaterally rescinded his contract with the Spanish side, after invoking FIFA's Article 17 (commonly known as the Webster ruling). As a result, the club was thought to be investigating a €15 million compensation claim against the player and his new club.

Newcastle United
Gutiérrez signed for Newcastle United on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee on 2 July 2008.[4] Gutiérrez told nufc.co.uk that instead of "Gutiérrez", the former Real Mallorca man will sport "Jonás" above his squad number 18 he said "Because I like my name."[5]
Gutiérrez made his debut for Newcastle United on the opening day of the 2008–09 season on 17 of August. In the game he impressed both fans and pundits as he helped his team to a 1–1 draw against title-holders Manchester United. Alan Hansen said on Match of the Day that Gutiérrez "was the most impressive Premier League debutant" on the opening day of the season.
Following a string of impressive performances Gutiérrez was subsequently sidelined during most of October and November with a shoulder injury. He returned to action as a substitute in the Tyne-Wear derby against local rivals Sunderland[6], and later started in matches against West Bromwich Albion and Aston Villa[7][8], reclaiming his place in the first team with impressive play. Newcastle's form dipped however and Gutiérrez was only on the bench when Newcastle were relegated after defeat to Aston Villa.
He scored his first goal for Newcastle United in their pre-season friendly match against Darlington which resulted in a 7-2 win for Newcastle on the 18th of July 2009.[9] Following the departure of Left-sided winger Damien Duff in the transfer window, Gutierrez has switched from his usual right winger to left winger position. Since then, he has formed an effective left flank partnership with fellow Spanish-speaker Jose Enrique. His first competitive goal for Newcastle was against Peterborough United on 7 November 2009, taking on five players before finishing.[10] After scoring, he did not celebrate with his Spider-Man mask, in protest to the latest quit rumors circulating around. He netted his second goal of the season in the 6-1 drubbing of Barnsley, smashing a right-footed shot into the net via the underside of the crossbar from 25 yards, and celebrating with his trademark Spider-Man mask. The next came at Bristol City, where he punished a defensive error to spark Newcastle's comeback from 2 goals down to draw 2-2.[11] Following Newcastle's promotion to the Premier League, Gutierrez has stated that he would like to play at Newcastle for many more years.[12] Gutiérrez has been labelled as one of the best players in the Premier League by none other than World Footballer of the Year Lionel Messi.[13] On Newcastle's return to the Premier League, he started the first four Premier League fixtures of his club in his accustomed left wing role, having formed a good understanding with left back José Enrique. With the arrival of Hatem Ben Arfa to the club and the Frenchan's impressive displays, Jonas dropped to the bench for Newcastle's clashes with Everton and Stoke City. Gutierrez scored his first goal of the 2010/11 campaign against Manchester City in a 2-1 defeat on 3 October 2010.

International career
Gutiérrez earned his first cap for Argentina against France in February 2007 and later on in the year earned his second cap versus Australia on 11 September. He earned his third cap on 18 June 2008, away to Brazil as part of the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, the match concluding in a 0–0 draw. He scored his first goal for Argentina in the first half of a friendly against France on February 11, 2009. However, due to the presence of other wingers such as Lionel Messi and Maxi Rodríguez in the squad for the World Cup, Gutiérrez has often played at right back for his country.
