Club career

Born in Tumaco, Cuero was a La Equidad youth graduate. He made his first team – and Categoría Primera A – debut on 23 October 2011, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 away win against Independiente Medellín.

On 29 January 2014 Cuero moved abroad, after agreeing to a three-year contract with Romanian Liga I side FC Vaslui.[1][2] He made his debut in the category on 23 February, again from the bench in a 0–0 draw at CFR Cluj.

After being rarely used, Cuero was loaned to Club Olimpo on 16 July 2014.[3] He scored his first professional goal on 8 November, scoring his team's second in a 2–1 home win against Quilmes AC.[4]

On 8 January 2015 Cuero moved to Club Atlético Banfield on loan, still owned by La Equidad.[5] He scored seven goals for the side in 29 appearances, as his side finished eight.

On 10 November 2015, Levante UD reached an agreement with La Equidad for the transfer of Cuero, who is expected to sign a three-year deal with the Valencian side.[6] On 21 July 2016, after suffering relegation, he signed for Santos Laguna.[7]
