Career
Osorno made his debut on January 11, 1997 in a game against Tecos UAG and quickly became one of the main goal scorers for Atlas. During this time, he was one of several players in the Atlas youth system to eventually join the Mexican national team, along with teammates such as Rafael Marquez, Juan Pablo Rodriguez, and Miguel Zepeda. Under the direction of head coach Ricardo Antonio Lavolpe, Atlas became a leading contender, with Osorno regularly starting on the left wing. In the Verano 1999 competition Atlas reached the final, but lost on penalties to Toluca. For seven years Daniel was a symbolic player for Atlas. However, his form began to deteriorate after dealing with some injury problems. Osorno was loaned out to Monterrey for a year in 2003. He made his return to Atlas in 2004, but did not manage to return to his old form.
After the 2006-2007 season was concluded, Osorno declared his departure from Club Atlas, with CF Monterrey and Santos Laguna showing interest in acquiring his services. On August 1, 2007 it was announced that Osorno had signed with the American team Colorado Rapids. He played only 3 games with the team.
Osorno returned to Mexico and was signed by Puebla F.C., where his career experienced a recovery.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“I’ve been in the twilight of my career longer than most people have had their career.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
