Career

Torres began in Academia Cantolao and Sport Boys. He moved to Europe to play for the German club MSV Duisburg and Austrian club DSV Leoben. He returned to Peru to play for Universitario. Problems between Torres and the directors of the club caused him to sign with Sporting Cristal where he would play for four seasons and win one national championship. He returned to Universitario in 2008 but was unable to play in the first seven games of the season because of an injury in preseason.

Torres made 28 appearances for the Peru national team.^[1]

In August 2016, he announced his retirement from football.
