Club career
Born in Eusebio Ayala in the Cordillera Department of Paraguay, Noguera began his career with Cerro Porteño before a move to Olimpia.[2][3] In a later interview, Noguera's father stated that during the COVID-19 pandemic in Paraguay, Olimpia failed to communicate with players, and because of this, he began exploring the possibility of joining a new club.[3]
In March 2022, he joined Grêmio, signing a four-year contract with a $30 million release clause.[2][4] Following his departure, former Olimpia youth coach Enrique Landaida stated that the club did all they could to keep Noguera at the club.[3] He scored on his debut for Grêmio's under-20 team; the only goal in their 1–0 win against Apafut.[2][5] In July 2023, he was included in the first-team squad ahead of a Série A match against Atlético Mineiro.[5] He made his professional debut in the 1–0 win on 22 July, coming on as a second-half substitute for André Henrique.[6]
