Club career

Born in Talca, he began his career at hometown club Rangers. He officially debuted in 2004 aged 18.

In 2007, after the relegation of Rangers to Primera B, he remained at the top tier after being loaned to Palestino, scoring one goal in 29 appearances in his only season season. The following year, he was loaned again, this time to Curicó Unido in the second level, whilst Rangers achieved its promotion to the Campeonato Nacional.

In 2009, he finally returned to Rangers. However, they were relegated in a controversial way after a violation of the league's foreign players rule.[2] He left the club in 2010.

Following spells at Magallanes (2011) and Santiago Morning (2012), Núñez joined Deportes Puerto Montt in January 2013. He helped the southern club win the Segunda División Profesional in the 2013–14 season, returning to the second tier of Chilean football.
