Club career

Jerónimo has previously played for a number of clubs in his home country, including

On 6 January 2016, he returned to former club Independiente Rivadavia.

Jerónimo signed for

Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday.[3] His first appearance for Barnsley after signing on a one-year contract, was on the same day against non-league Buxton, where he scored his first goal for the club, in a friendly match.[4]

Adelaide United

On 10 August 2012, it was announced Jerónimo had agreed to terms with Australian club

Round 1, he supplied a clinical ball to Dario Vidošić for the first goal, 50 seconds into the match against Newcastle Jets
. Adelaide United won the match 0–2. He was subsequently named Man of the Match.

A week later he scored his first A-League goal against

Round 4. The match was embroiled in controversy with Adelaide being awarded an offside goal. The referee later adjudged Jerónimo to be illegally tackled, which led to Wellington Phoenix defender Ben Sigmund being red carded. The Australian media judged that while Sigmund did foul Jerónimo after making contact with him, Jerónimo fell down theatrically.[7][8]

It was revealed that Jerónimo was originally signed as a loan player from Paraguay club Sol de América, and was released from his contract on 12 December 2012, allowing the Argentine forward to sign on for a further two-years with the Adelaide United.[9]

Newcastle Jets

On 18 July 2014, Jerónimo joined Newcastle Jets.[10] He scored his first goal for the club in the 2–1 away defeat to Perth Glory on 1 November 2014. His contract was terminated by mutual consent by the Jets on 4 February 2015.[11]
