He recently signed with Brazilian Série A club Flamengo and previously played for Universitario and Unión Comercio from his home country Peru.[2] He is also a member of Peru national tem.

His polished technique, precise passing, and great dribbling skills have made him an asset in the attacking force of his team as well as a solid defender.

In 2016, he signed for Universitario de Deportes.

On October 2016 Brazilian and Peruvian press reported rumors about a possible interest of Flamengo signing Trauco.[4] Shortly after, on 13 December 2016, Trauco gave an interview to Peruvian newspaper Libero confirming his transfer to Flamengo for the 2017 season.[5] However, the Brazilian club didn't confirm any signing, saying they are still negotiating with Trauco.

Trauco was elected 2016 Peruvian Primera División best player with 39 appearances, one goal and 11 assists.[6]

After many rumors in the press Flamengo announced officially Traucos's signing, on 14 December 2016. The left back signed a three-year contract with the Brazilian club.[7] He debuted for his new club on 28 January 2017 scoring a goal and two assists against Boavista, in the opening match of the 2017 Rio de Janeiro State League.
