Club career

Born in Asunción, Correa is a youth prospect of Sportivo Luqueño, where he stayed for just one year, before he moved to Club Rubio Ñu. On 11 July 2012, the 19-year-old moved to Benfica from Club Rubio Ñu on a five-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[2] He was assigned to the B-team and made his debut on 11 August 2012, in a 2012–13 Segunda Liga match against Braga B, replacing Djaniny in the 72 minute.[3] The following matches, he asserted himself in the starting lineup, but only scored two goals in more than six months.[4][5]

In February 2013, Correa returned to Sportivo Luqueño, on loan until the end of the season, scoring three goals in 17 league games.[6] For the following season, Correa was loaned out for a second time, re-joining Rubio Ñu, with Benfica disclosing on 30 May 2014 that Correa's and Derlis González's economic rights had been sold to Master International FZC for €1.7 million.[7]

On 22 July 2014, he joined Club Sol de América,[8] where he played the first part of the season, before joining Rubio Ñu on loan for a third spell at the club for the 2015 Apertura.[1] On 13 June 2015, Correa moved to Guaraní on loan,[1] where he scored 10 goals in total, four in 2015 Clausura and six in the 2016 Apertura.[9][10] After two and half seasons in Paraguayan football, in June 2016 Correa emigrated again, this time on a loan deal to Argentinian club Aldosivi.[11][12]

In July 2018, Correa joined Independiente.[13] On 15 February 2019, he was loaned out to Brazilian club Pelotas.[13] In April 2019, he returned to Rubio Ñu.[14]

International career

Correa was in the squad for the 2011 South American Youth Championship where he played in the 3 games and scored once.

On 28 January 2011, after a match against Colombia U20, Correa assaulted the assistant referee for alleged errors during the match. He was suspended 1 year from March 2011 to March 2012 from internacional matches.[15][16] However, since Paraguay U20 didn't qualify for 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup or the 2012 Summer Olympics, neither Club Rubio Ñu qualify for CONMEBOL competitions, the suspension had no practical effect.[17]
