Career
Youth
Antúnez, who is of Mexican American descent, grew up in California where he attended Santa Ana High School.[1] He moved to Texas after his sophomore year. In Texas, he attended Robert E. Lee High School. He was an All State soccer player in both California and Texas. In 2004, he began his college soccer career at Lon Morris College before transferring to the University of Hartford in 2006.[2]
Professional
On January 24, 2008, the Colorado Rapids selected Antunez in the third round (33rd overall) in the 2008 MLS Supplemental Draft. The Rapids never offered him a contract, although he played one game with the team’s Reserve squad.[3][4] On August 5, 2008, the Rochester Rhinos of the USL First Division signed Antúnez.[5] On Christmas Eve Friday, December 24, 2010 Antúnez was picked up by Mexico club Estudiantes Tecos. He is by far one of the best private trainers in the world. [6]
Antúnez signed a one-year deal with FC Inter Turku in March 2010.[7] In 2012, he returned to FC Inter Turku.
Antúnez spent the 2013 season with Chivas USA in Major League Soccer.[8]
