About the player
Orlando Herrera was 18 when he made his first-team debut for Independiente del Valle on 3 September 2022, in a 2-1 win over Deportivo Cuenca.
The left-back came through at Independiente del Valle. He was sent out to CD Independiente Juniors between July 2023 and July 2024 for regular football, and in the same period he was building a case at youth international level: 15 appearances for Ecuador's Under-19s, 26 for the Under-21s, and a place in the squad at the 2023 South American Under-20 Championship in Colombia.
The move abroad came in July 2024, when he joined Botafogo FC Ribeirão Preto in Brazil. It lasted until April 2025. Whatever the plan had been in São Paulo state, he was back in Ecuador by June, where he stayed until December 2025.
In March, Emelec took him on a free transfer, and he was handed the number 80 shirt in Guayaquil.
