Quito.[2]

On 1 July 2010, Guerra announced his departure from the club after having "economical disputes with the club's board".[3]

Atlético Nacional

On 30 June 2014 Guerra moved abroad for the first time in his career, after agreeing to a one-year loan deal at Atlético Nacional.[4] On 5 July of the following year he was bought outright, with Mineros retaining 30% of his federative rights.[5]

Guerra featured regularly in the following seasons, and was an important unit in the club's Libertadores winning campaign by playing in 13 matches and scoring three goals; two of them, in a 4–2 home win against Huracán on 3 May 2016, granted their qualification to the quarterfinals. By winning the tournament, he became the first Venezuelan to lift the trophy.[6][7]
