Aguayo joined Sol de América's youth sides after a failed trial at Olimpia.[2] After progressing through the youth categories, he made his first team debut on 7 September 2024, coming on as a second-half substitute for Ronald Roa in a 2–0 away win over Sportivo Limpeño, for the year's Copa Paraguay.[3]

Aguayo made his Primera División debut on 11 September 2024, replacing Víctor Barrios in a 1–0 home loss to Libertad.[4] He featured in one further league match, starting in a 1–0 home win over Sportivo Ameliano on 29 November, as his side was already relegated.

Santos

[edit]

In February 2025, Aguayo was linked to a possible move to Brazilian club Santos, for a rumoured fee of US$ 400,000 for 80% of his economic rights.[5][6] The player himself confirmed the negotiations on 17 February, during an interview to a local radio,[7] and a deal was agreed hours later, with him initially joining the under-20 team.[8]

International career

[edit]

On 11 September 2022, Aguayo was called up to the Paraguay national under-17 team for a period of trainings.[9] The following 14 March, he was included in the squad for the 2023 South American U-17 Championship,[10] and was a regular starter during the competition.

On 9 January 2025, Aguayo was called up to the under-20 team for the 2025 South American U-20 Championship.[11] He was also a first-choice in the tournament, scoring twice in seven matches.
