Club career

Osuna began his career with local team Sinaloa, debuting when he was aged 20 and after a few months he became an undisputed starter for the Dorados.[1] In the fall of 2012, his team reached the final of the Ascenso MX, the Mexican Segunda Division, and won the Copa MX, becoming the first ever Segunda Division club to win the competition. After four years, thanks to his good performances, he was bought at the end of the year by Querétaro quickly becoming a regular starter.[2] He made his debut for the Gallos Blancos on 5 January 2013 on a 2–2 draw against León and scored his first goal on 19 July on a 1–3 loss against Morelia.

International career

In April 2015, Osuna received his first call-up to the senior national team (managed by Miguel Herrera) for a friendly game against the United States, where he made his debut.[3]
