Career

edit

Born in Asunción, Caballero had a well-traveled playing career, appearing for clubs in Chile, Mexico and Peru. In Chile, he played for Everton in the second level[2] and Palestino,[3] Huachipato,[4] Cobreloa[5] and Universidad Católica[6] in the top level. He played for 15 different clubs before leaving 3 de Febrero in 2006, after a dispute with manager Alicio Solalinde.[7]

In 2003, Primera División de México side Puebla canceled his contract, ending a seven-year stint playing abroad, so Caballero returned to Paraguay to play for Cerro Porteño.[8]

After he retired from playing, Caballero became a football coach. In December 2008, he was appointed to manage 3 de Febrero, his first coaching position with professional club.[9]
