Herrero spent his two seasons at the B's as a backup, the first to Rubén Yáñez and the second to Carlos Abad. On 22 July 2016 he signed a three-year contract with Real Oviedo, being initially assigned to the reserve team in Tercera División.[2]

Ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, Herrero was definitely promoted to the first team after Esteban's retirement.[3] He made his professional debut on 6 September 2017, starting in a 0–1 home loss against CD Numancia, for the season's Copa del Rey.[4]

Herrero made his Segunda División debut on 25 November 2017, starting in a 3–1 home win against CD Numancia. He subsequently became the first-choice for Juan Antonio Anquela's side, overtaking Juan Carlos.[5]

On 29 August 2020, free agent Herrero signed for Marbella FC in the third division.[6] The following 5 July, he returned to the second level after agreeing to a contract with Burgos CF.[7]

On 16 July 2022, Herrero signed a one-year deal with CD Mirandés, still in the second tier.[8] A regular starter, he moved to Málaga CF on 22 June 2023, on a three-year contract.[9]
