Ezequiel Adrián Cérica (born 20 October 1986) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for CA Mitre.[1]

Career

Cérica's career began with Temperley of Primera B Metropolitana in 2008.[2] A year later, Cérica completed a move to Primera C Metropolitana's Excursionistas.[2] Seventeen goals followed across forty-three matches in the 2009–10 campaign, with Excursionistas losing in the promotion play-off semi-finals to Talleres.[2] Talleres, who subsequently lost in the finals, signed Cérica in June 2010.[1] He scored fourteen goals in his sole season, with his ex-team eliminating his new team in the play-offs.[2] Cérica rejoined Temperley in June 2011, before leaving for Ferrocarril Midland in the following January.[1] Fifty-nine games and twenty-five goals came in tier four.[2]

After two seasons with Ferrocarril Midland, Cérica departed having been signed by Deportivo Morón.[1] He made his debut in a Primera B Metropolitana defeat away to Los Andes on 3 August 2013, which preceded his first goal for the club at the end of September against Fénix.[1] Cérica joined Villa Dálmine ahead of the 2014 Primera B Metropolitana, a campaign which he finished with five goals as they won promotion.[1] In total, he stayed with them for three years whilst scoring at least five goals in four straight seasons; including nine in 2016–17.[1] Cérica agreed to sign for Los Andes in 2017, prior to sealing a transfer to Arsenal de Sarandí in 2018.[1][3][4]
