In September 2009, he signed with PAS Giannina F.C.. After a season without having much continuity in the first team, he went on loan to Sud América for six months to play in the Uruguayan Second Level. He was loaned six months more to play for Greek Football League side Anagennisi Karditsa.

In July 2011, he returned to Uruguay to play again for Cerro Largo. After an outstanding championship he called the attention of various South American clubs being interested on him. Finally, in January 2012 he was transferred to Colombian giants América de Cali who were just relegated to Categoría Primera B.[1] Schenone and his teammates couldn´t succeed to return América to Colombian Top Division.

In February 2013, he agreed a new deal with Uruguayan club Liverpool de Montevideo.
