He moved to Macon, Georgia in 2004 to play college soccer at Mercer University, eventually graduating with a degree in business and marketing in May 2008.
A talented attacking midfielder who can play on flank, Arze was selected in the second round (25th overall) of the 2008 MLS Supplemental Draft by the Kansas City Wizards on January 24, 2008. He signed a two-year contract with the Whitecaps in early 2008, and played his first professional game was April 12 against Montreal Impact.
On October 2, 2008 he is nominated for Rookie of the Year (award). On December 16, 2008 the Vancouver Whitecaps announced the re-signing of Arze for the 2009 season.
Arze ended his contract with the Whitecaps at the end of the 2009 season.
On 10 December 2012, Arze was loaned out by Charleroi to Esteghlal. He made his debut on 14 December in a 4–0 win over Saipa in a Hazfi Cup match which he scored the last goal.
He returned to Blooming in January 2015 after a spell in Ukraine with Hoverla Uzhhorod.
Arze was part of the Bolivia U-20 squad that played in the 2003 South American U-20 championships in Uruguay. The tournament acted as the qualifiers for the 2003 U-20 World Cup finals in the United Arab Emirates. He was called up to the senior team in December 2012 just after he signed with Esteghlal.
