In the following years Aguirre rarely settled into a club, and played for Portuguesa, Independiente, Peñarol, Bolívar, CA Marbella, Danubio, CD Ourense, Deportivo FAS, River Plate Montevideo, Deportes Temuco[5] and Rentistas.

Managerial career

After starting his career with Plaza Colonia in 2002, Aguirre returned to his former club Peñarol in 2003. Despite winning the year's championship, he was sacked in December 2004.

On 20 December 2005, Aguirre was named in charge of Aucas, but was sacked the following March. In 2007, he was appointed manager of Montevideo Wanderers, and was subsequently in charge of Alianza Lima for just five matches.

In 2008, Aguirre was named Uruguay under-20 manager, after a request of Óscar Tabárez. On 7 December 2010 he returned to Peñarol,[6] winning another national championship and reaching the finals of the 2011 Copa Libertadores, where his side lost to Santos.
