Club career
Born in Bluefields, he made his debut for Deportivo Bluefields and played for América before enjoying a lengthy spell with Nicaraguan giants Real Estelí. He was Estelí´s top goalsorer in the 2005 Clausura and Apertura with 11 and 16 goals respectively but after scoring only 7 in the 2007 Apertura he was relegated to the bench only for Bluefield to try to lure him back to the club.
Controversy
In September 2010, Calero was charged with assault of a young man, the son of a prominent Nicaraguan businessman. Calero claimed the boy swore at him. He already faced prosecution for damage to property, after damaging a vehicle. The ill-disciplined Calero was again arrested in July 2012 after assaulting a citizen and allegedly threatening him with death.
