In 2016, he joined Belgian First Division A club Waasland-Beveren on a two-year contract, with an option for a third.[10] [11] He was named captain of the team in early February 2018 after Ibrahima Seck left the club.[12] [13]
In March 2018, he signed with Canadian club Montreal Impact in Major League Soccer.[14] [15] After starting in the first three games for his new club in which he was able, Camacho was sidelined with hip inflammation, causing him to miss the following six games.[16] He scored his first goal for his new club on 6 July 2019 in a 3–2 loss to Minnesota United.[17] In 2021, he was named the team's Defensive Player of the Year.[18] In February 2022, he extended his contract with the club until the end of the 2023 season.[19]
On 31 July 2023, Camacho was traded to fellow Major League Soccer side Columbus Crew in exchange for $400,000 in General Allocation Money.[20] Camacho would go on to win MLS Cup with his new side, earning a two-year contract extension after the victory.
