Rudel Alessandro Calero Nicaragua (born December 20, 1982) is a Nicaraguan footballer who currently plays for Real Estelí and the Nicaragua national football team.
Born in Bluefields, he made his debut for Deportivo Bluefields and played for América before enjoying a lengthy spell with Nicaraguan giants Real Estelí. He was Estelí´s top goalsorer in the 2005 Clausura and Apertura with 11 and 16 goals respectively but after scoring only 7 in the 2007 Apertura he was relegated to the bench only for Bluefield to try to lure him back to the club.
In September 2010, Calero was charged with assault of a young man, the son of a prominent Nicaraguan businessman. Calero claimed the boy swore at him. He already faced prosecution for damage to property, after damaging a vehicle. The ill-disciplined Calero was again arrested in July 2012 after assaulting a citizen and allegedly threatening him with death.
Calero made his debut for Nicaragua in an April 2001 friendly match against Belize and has, as of December 2013, earned a total of 26 caps, scoring 4 goals. He has represented his country in 2 FIFA World Cup qualification matches and played at the 2001,2003,2005 and 2011 UNCAF Nations Cups as well as at the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
His final international was a January 2011 Copa Centroamericana match against Guatemala.
