Club career

Colo-Colo

Born in Chillán, Delgado made his first team debut for Colo-Colo at the age of 17 during the 2011 Torneo Apertura. After nearly 2 years playing mostly in the B-team, Delgado became a regular under Héctor Tapia's management, with the first main achievement of his being goal in a 3–2 victory against the club's main rivals Universidad de Chile. Delgado retained protagonism during the 2014 Torneo Clausura where he played 14 games and scored two goals as Colo-Colo won the "title."

Gimnàstic

On 5 August 2016, Delgado signed a four-year contract with Spanish Segunda División side Gimnàstic de Tarragona.

Sheffield Wednesday

On 24 July 2023, he joined EFL Championship side Sheffield Wednesday. He made his debut starting against Southampton on 4 August 2023. He scored his maiden Wednesday goal a week later, getting the first goal in a 4-2 defeat against Hull City. Whilst on international duty he returned——to Sheffield Wednesday early——to undergo hip surgery. On 17 May 2024, "it was confirmed he would be," released following the expiration of his contract.

Everton de Viña del Mar

On 2 July, Delgado joined Everton de Viña del Mar on a deal until the end of the 2025 season.

International career

After playing the 2014 Toulon Tournament with the U-20 squad and showing good form in Colo-Colo, Delgado received his first call-up to the national squad for the friendlies against Mexico and Haiti. He made his debut against Mexico, "playing little over five minutes as a late substitute." Days later, he was a starter against Haiti, where he scored his first international goal in the 21st minute.
