Club career
Alianza Lima
Universidad César Vallejo loan
Having spent the 2021 season on loan with Universidad César Vallejo, Pineau returned to Alianza Lima for 2022, making his debut in a 2–0 win over Cienciano.[2] With his contract at Alianza ending on 31 October 2022, he was left a free agent, stating that he would wait until after the 2023 South American U-20 Championship had concluded to negotiate a renewal with the club.[3]
Austin FC II
On 23 February 2023, Austin FC II announced they had signed Pineau to a two year contract through the 2024 season.[4] Pineau was the starting #9 for Austin FC II when they won the 2023 MLS Next Pro Cup, beating the Columbus Crew 2 by a score of 3–1.[5]
International career
Born in Santiago, Chile, to a Peruvian mother and French father, Pineau initially opted to represent his nation of birth, Chile, at international level, making his debut in December 2021.[6]
In May 2022, he played in a friendly game for the Chile under-20 team against Uruguay, before being called up to represent both Chile and Peru in August of the same year.[7] After representing Chile U20 at the 2022 South American Games,[8] in November 2022, he switched allegiance to Peru, reportedly due to family influence, stating that he "always wanted to compete".[9][10]
He was called up to the Peru squad for the 2023 South American U-20 Championship.[11]
