Chicco, after a stint with local team Deportivo Brinkmann, joined the ranks of Colón in 2010.[4][5] In August 2016, Chicco was loaned to fellow Primera División team Talleres.[3][6] He didn't make a competitive appearance for the Córdoba outfit, though was an unused substitute on nine occasions.[3][7] Chicco returned to Colón ahead of the 2017–18 campaign.[3][8] He'd be on the bench forty times for them across the following three seasons.[3] Chicco belatedly made his bow in professional football on 8 August 2019, appearing for the full duration of a Copa Sudamericana first leg loss in Venezuela to Zulia.[9][10][11]

In January 2024, Chicco joined Belgrano on a three-year contract.[12]
