Career
Herrera started his career at Centro Español, making his debut in the 2009–10 Primera D match against Victoriano Arenas. He made 21 appearances in the 2010–11 season, mostly as a substitute, and scored 2 goals. His team ended in the fifth position and made it to the play-off finals, being defeated by Atlas. He would take part in all of his teams' matches the following season, and ended the championship as second best goalscorer, with 19 goals. Herrera would stay at Centro Español for a third and last season in 2012–13, before transferring to runners-up Deportivo Riestra.
Herrera achieved immediate success at the Blanquinegro squad, as they would become champions of the 2013–14 Primera D. Herrera's 26 goals in the season made him top goalscorer spot not only for the Primera D tournament, but of any AFA tournament in the season.
He stayed at Deportivo Riestra after promotion to Primera C, which meant his first experience as professional footballer. During the 2014 season, only 6 months long due to a restructuring in the Argentine football league system, Deportivo Riestra made a surprising campaign, ending second in their group and winning play-offs right after that, to clinch their second promotion within the same year. Herrera kept his scoring stint, scoring 4 goals in a single match in three occasions, against Dock Sud and Justo José de Urquiza. Jonathan Herrera became top goalscorer for the second season in a row, now at a higher tier, with 19 goals.
