Club career

edit

Montevideo Wanderers

edit

Born in Montevideo, Hernández was a Montevideo Wanderers youth graduate. He made his first team – and Primera División – debut on 4 November 2012, coming on as a second-half substitute for Alejandro Lago in a 0–1 home loss against Bella Vista.

On 27 February 2013, after just one further appearance for Wanderers, Hernández was loaned to Segunda División side Huracán del Paso de la Arena for the remainder of the year.[2]

Cerro

edit

In 2014, Hernández joined Cerro,[3] Initially assigned in the reserve team, he first appeared with the main squad on 9 March by starting in a 1–1 home draw against Sud América.

Hernández became a starter for the club from March 2015 onwards, and scored his first professional goal on 30 May, in a 2–0 home win over Rentistas.[4]

Peñarol

edit

On 27 January 2017, Hernández moved to Peñarol on a one-year deal.[5] An immediate first-choice, he contributed with 36 league appearances as the club won the league.

Hernández signed permanently with the club for the 2018 season, and remained a regular starter as the club achieved a domestic double by winning the league and the Supercopa Uruguaya.

Atlético Mineiro

edit

On 5 June 2019, Campeonato Brasileiro Série A side Atlético Mineiro announced the signing of Hernández.[6][7] He made his debut abroad on 14 July, starting in a 2–1 away success over Chapecoense.[8]

A backup to Fábio Santos, Hernández subsequently fell further down the pecking order after the arrival of Guilherme Arana.

Loan to Cuiabá

edit

In September 2020, Hernández was loaned to Série B side Cuiabá until the end of the season.[9] In December, however, he suffered a serious knee injury, being sidelined for the remainder of the campaign;[10] his loan was subsequently extended for his complete recovery, with his side achieving a first-ever promotion to the top tier.[11]

On 17 May 2021, Hernández's loan was extended until December.[12] However, he spent the campaign as a backup to Uendel.

Loan to Sport Recife

edit

On 21 January 2022, Hernández joined Sport Recife on a season-long loan.[13]
