Career edit

Mosquera began his youth career with Centauros Villavicencio and made his first team debut with the club in 2006. After two seasons with Centauros he signed with Primera A club Deportes Quindío and remained at the club until 2010. Mosquera quickly established himself as a first team starter for Quindío. For the second half of the 2010 season he was loaned to La Equidad.[1] Mosquera continued as a regular starter for his new club and also played for La Equidad in the 2011 Copa Sudamericana. On August 19, 2011 he helped lead his club to a 2-0 victory over Peru's Juan Aurich, scoring the game's opening goal in the Copa Sudamericana match.[2]

In January 2012 it was reported that Mosquera was close to signing with top Colombian club Millonarios, however Mosquera decided against the offer and began negotiating to join a club in Major League Soccer (MLS).[3] The Portland Timbers of MLS announced the signing of Mosquera on January 17, 2012.[4]

Mosquera was released by Portland on May 15, 2013.[5]
