Arzura was a part of Tigre's youth academy until 2013, but made his senior debut in Copa Argentina on 29 November 2011. He came on as a substitute in the second half, and played a role when Tigre scored two late winning goals against Defensa y Justicia to make it 4–2.[1]
His league debut came on 31 August 2013, in the 2013-14-season of Primera División, against Quilmes. He played in total 31 league games that season, making him an important player in Tigre's midfield.
