During his professional career he played for Newell's Old Boys, Banfield, Tenerife (his most fruitful period, playing in four La Liga seasons and also reaching the UEFA Cup), Independiente and Real Valladolid; in February 2001, he had an unsuccessful trial with Premier League club Everton.

Additionally, Paz represented his country at the 1996 Summer Olympics, featuring twice in an eventual silver medal conquest.
