Career

edit

Rivero joined Newell's Old Boys' youth system in 2010.[2] He got his senior career underway with Argentine Primera División side Newell's Old Boys in 2015, with his professional debut arriving on 28 September during an away win against Estudiantes.[1][3][4] He didn't feature throughout the 2016 season, but did play five times during the following campaign of 2016–17.[1][5] After sixty-seven appearances in all competitions for Newell's, Rivero departed on loan to Ecuadorian Serie A side Independiente del Valle in July 2020 until the end of 2021.[6] The deal was made with a purchase option, with the Ecuadorian club paying a fee around US$180,000 for the loan deal. His first appearance came in a win away to El Nacional on 15 August.[1] On 30 January 2021, the spell was cut short, after Arsenal decided to recall the player.[7]

In June 2021, Rivero was sold to Defensa y Justicia, signing a deal until the end of 2025.[8] Due to lack of playing time, Rivero was in February 2022 loaned out to fellow league club, Arsenal de Sarandí, until the end of June 2022 with a purchase option.[9]
