In 1989, after playing for Atlético Grau, Cardama returned to Sporting Cristal. He retired in the following year at the age of just 23, due to a knee injury.

Managerial career

After retiring, Cardama started working as a manager in his last team Sporting Cristal's youth setup. His first senior experience occurred in 1996, with Copa Perú side Coronel Bolognesi.

In September 1999, after a two-year spell at Alianza Atlético, Cardama was named manager of the Peru under-23 national team.[1] Despite failing to qualify for the 2000 Summer Olympics, he was named assistant of Francisco Maturana in the full side on 3 February 2000.[2]

On 20 September 2000, Cardama was appointed in charge of Sport Boys.[3] He was subsequently in charge of Universitario during the 2001 campaign, before returning to Alianza Atlético for the 2002 season;[4] in that year, he was also manager of Cienciano.

Cardama returned to Alianza Atlético in 2003, but left on a mutual agreement on 10 November 2004.[5] He was named at the helm of Melgar in 2005, but was sacked on 5 April 2006.[6]

In 2007, after a short period at José Gálvez, Cardama rejoined Alianza for a fourth spell. He narrowly avoided relegation with the club in 2009, but was still dismissed on 8 April 2010.[7]

Cardama was named manager of Cobresol on 13 January 2011,[8] but was relieved of his duties on 30 April of the following year. He took over León de Huánuco on 24 September 2012,[9] and left the club at the end of the season.

Cardama was in charge of Los Caimanes in the 2013 campaign, helping the club win the Segunda División and achieve a first-ever promotion to the top tier.[10] He was dismissed on 21 August 2014,[11] and agreed to a return to Alianza Atlético on 6 December.[12]

Replaced by Gustavo Roverano for the 2016 season,[13] Cardama was appointed manager of Carlos A. Mannucci on 6 October of that year.[14] After leaving in May 2017,[15] he stayed for more than three years without a club before returning to Sport Boys after 20 years on 23 September 2020.[16]
