Club career edit
Born in Cali, Lucumí started his career at hometown side Dépor FC, and made his first team debut on 2 August 2012, playing the last seven minutes of a 1–2 Categoría Primera B home loss against Atlético Bucaramanga. His first goal for the club came on 10 March of the following year, as he scored the winner in a 2–1 home success over Jaguares de Córdoba.
Ahead of the 2014 campaign, Lucumí moved to América de Cali, also in the second division.[1] He helped the club achieve promotion to Categoría Primera A in 2016, being a regular starter, and made his debut in the top tier on 4 February 2017 by starting in a 0–0 home draw against Rionegro Águilas.[2]
Lucumí scored his first goal in the Colombian first division on 19 February 2017, netting his team's second in a 3–0 away win against La Equidad.[3] On 25 July of that year, after already scoring six goals for América, he agreed to a three-year contract with Atlético Nacional, for a fee of US$1.8 million; América also retained 30% of a future sale.[4]
In June 2019, Lucumí moved abroad for the first time in his career, signing for Liga MX side Tigres UANL; Jarlan Barrera moved in the opposite direction.[5] On 10 July, however, he was announced at fellow league team Querétaro.[6]
On 15 September 2020, Lucumí joined La Liga newcomers Elche CF, reuniting with his former manager at Atlético Nacional, Jorge Almirón.[7] On 1 February 2021, after just two league matches, he terminated his contract.[8]
On February 18 2021, Lucumí returned to Colombia and signed with América de Cali.[9][10] A year later, in January 2022, Lucumí moved to Deportes Tolima.[11]
