Club Career

Born in Lebrija, Province of Seville, Cordero arrived at Sevilla FC's youth ranks at the age of 12 from local CA Antoniano. In 2006 he moved to Sevilla Atletico, helping Sevilla FC's reserves achieve promotion to the second division.

After totalling 45 matches with Sevilla B the following two seasons – suffering relegation in his second – and some call-ups to the first team, although he never appeared officially for the Andalusians, Cordero was loaned to another side in the third tier, Real Madrid Castilla. In August 2010 he signed with Xerez CD, returning to his native region.

In his first season, Cordero was one of the most used players by manager Javi Lopez (almost 2,900 minutes of action), scoring five goals as Xerez easily retained their status. He also collected 15 yellow cards.

Cordero joined AEK Athens F.
