Playing in Europe

Time in Japan

In 1992, Sergio moved to Japan to play for Urawa Reds. This was a special time because his brother, Osvaldo Escudero, was also playing for the same team. Even though he was with the team, Sergio did not play in any official top-level matches. He retired from playing at the end of the 1992 season.

Other Footballing Relatives
