In the following years he played together with many experienced players such as Humberto Suazo , Matías Fernández and Alexis Sánchez . In 2002 ( Clausura ), 2006 ( Apertura & Clausura) and 2007 (Apertura & Clausura) he won the national championship with Colo-Colo. Gradually, Fierro developed into a top performer in the club.

It was not until April 5, 2009 that he played his first competitive game in the state championship. The midfielder only got his second chance to prove himself in the new league on July 12th of the same year, when he wanted to replace Ibson Barreto da Silva, who had been on loan again . Fierro scored his first goal for Flamengo in the game against São Paulo after a short time. In the meantime he has more stakes. After the end of the 2009 season, he was the first Chilean to celebrate a Brazilian championship after Nelson Tapia , Elías Figueroa and Claudio Maldonado .

In early 2012, Fierro returned to Colo-Colo. With the club he won the Chilean championship in 2015 and 2017. At the beginning of 2018 he switched to CD Antofagasta .
