With Atlante, Guerrero was champion of the Apertura 2007 tournament. 2 years later, his team also won the 2008-09 CONCACAF Champions League, thus qualifying for the 2009 FIFA Club World Cup in Abu Dhabi where Atlante would finish fourth after losing in the semifinals to eventual tournament champions FC Barcelona.
