Together with teammate and [French International](/source/France_national_football_team) [striker](/source/Striker_(association_football)) [Yves Triantafillos](/source/Yves_Triantafillos), Losada created one of the greatest attacking lines in Olympiacos history.

Finishing his time with the Greek club in 1980, Losada played with the red and white shirt during 146 games, scoring 30 goals in the [Greek First Division](/source/Super_League_Greece).
