Passerini got underway with Quilmes in 2014.[1][3] His debut appearance for Quilmes arrived on 8 August 2014, he played fourteen minutes of a Primera División match with Rosario Central; which was one of two appearances he made for the club.[1][4] In January 2015, Comunicaciones in Primera B Metropolitana loaned Passerini.[1] He netted his first goal in his second game for Comunicaciones, on 14 March versus Deportivo Merlo.[1] Overall, he scored three goals in twenty-two fixtures.[1] 2016 saw Passerini sign for fellow Primera B Metropolitana team Estudiantes.[1][5] He scored on his starting debut vs. UAI Urquiza.[1]

On 22 July 2017, following eleven goals in thirty-four games in 2016–17 for Estudiantes, Passerini joined Tigre on loan.[1][6] Five appearances in the Argentine Primera División followed.[1] In January 2018, Sarmiento became Passerini's fifth club as he signed on loan until the end of the 2017–18 Primera B Nacional campaign.[1][7] Seven months later, Paraguayan Primera División side Guaraní completed the loan signing of Passerini on 8 July.[1] He made his bow against Libertad on 12 August, which was one of eight matches he featured in as they placed eighth to qualify for the 2019 Copa Sudamericana.[1]

In January 2019, Passerini switched Paraguay for Chile by agreeing terms with Palestino.[1][8] Passerini netted a hat-trick in the Chilean Primera División versus Audax Italiano on 18 August 2019, which made it six goals in his last three matches and his eleventh goal in twenty-four total games.[1][9] Another hat-trick arrived on 6 October versus Curicó Unido, in between strikes against Coquimbo Unido and Cobresal.[1] January 2020 saw Passerini head to Liga MX with Cruz Azul.[10] He wouldn't score in four 2019–20 matches, though did net home and away in the CONCACAF Champions League versus Portmore United.[1]

June 2020 saw Passerini agree twelve-month loan terms with fellow Mexican top-flight team Necaxa.[11][12] He scored on his home debut against América on 7 August, before netting on his next appearance versus Mazatlán on 12 August.[1] Passerini's loan was cut short at the end of December, with the centre-forward subsequently agreeing a move to Atlético San Luis ahead of January 2021.[13][14]
