Career

Lucero played for Independiente Rivadavia's academy after joining at the age of seven.[2] He began his senior league career with Torneo Argentino B side Estudiantes in 2004.[3] Having scored once in thirteen games for the San Luis club, he moved up a step to resign with Independiente Rivadavia.[3] His second season ended with promotion to Primera B Nacional.[3] However, Lucero didn't feature in the second tier as he left to Juventud Unida Universitario, therefore remaining in Torneo Argentino A.[3] Moves to Deportivo Guaymallén and Sportivo Patria followed.[3] By this point, he had also featured for Deportivo Algarroba.[2]

Lucero played for Andes Talleres in the third division in 2012–13, scoring four goals as they experienced relegation.[3] He subsequently spent time with Deportivo Montecaseros and Gutiérrez up until 2016.[3] With Gutiérrez, they were promoted up to Torneo Federal A as he notched twenty goals across fifty-four appearances for the club.[1][3] Lucero had a short spell with Huracán Las Heras in Torneo Federal B to end 2016, scoring twelve times in twenty-one.[3] On 3 November 2017, Lucero rejoined Independiente Rivadavia; now of Primera B Nacional.[1][4] His first pro league appearance came in a Flandria draw on 5 November.[1]

In September 2020, Lucero joined Cypriot Second Division club Enosis Neon THOI Lakatamia.[5][6]
