society

He made his debut in the Mexican Primera División on November 12, 1983 in an away game at CF Oaxtepec , which Necaxa won 2-0. Up to and including the 1996/97 season Navarro was under contract with Necaxa for 14 years and won the Mexican football championship twice in a row with the Rayos in the 1994/95 and 1995/96 seasons.

He spent the 1997/98 season with city rivals Cruz Azul , with whom he won the 1997 Torneo Invierno championship. However, he did not succeed in ousting goalkeeper Óscar Pérez Rojas and so he came only to ten missions throughout the season.

He returned to Necaxa and ended his active career there in the 2002/03 season.

October 1995 he completed his only mission over the full distance of ninety minutes and on November 16, 1995 he played the first half against Yugoslavia (1: 4), in which he had to accept three goals.
