Pablo Piñones-Arce (born August 27, 1981 in Tumba, Sweden) is a Swedish footballer of Chilean origin currently playing for Vejle Boldklub in the Danish Superliga. He plays as a forward.
After having spent his early career in minor clubs, such as IFK Tumba and IK Sirius, he became a part of the highly successful IF Brommapojkarna squad of 1981-born youngsters. In 1999, he moved to Venezia, being however featured only with the youth squad, and marking no appearances in the first team. In 2002, he was transferred to Hammarby IF. In all, he scored 20 goals in 93 matches.
After the 2006 season, he was not offered a new contract with Hammarby, but his final third of the season showed that he had a lot more to give and he was able to score six goals in only thirteen matches. The club then changed their mind and offered him a contract extension. But instead Pablo chose to sign a 3-year contract with the Danish club Vejle Boldklub running from 1 January, 2007.
