Club career

Born in Villavicencio, Pineda began his career with local side Centauros Villavicencio, before joining Boca Juniors de Cali in 2009.[2] After a year with Boca Juniors, he joined La Equidad, spending two years and making his debut under coach Alexis García in the Copa Colombia.[2] Following García's departure from the club, the new manager did not favour Pineda, and he left for Venezuelan team Monagas, having been recommended by former Colombian footballer Enrique Braidy.[2]

Following impressive performances with Monagas, he was scouted by Colombian Categoría Primera A side Millonarios, and joined on a half-season loan deal in July 2015.[2] Growing up, Pineda had been a fan of the Bogotá-based club.[2] Following the end of the 2015 season, he was not kept on by Millonarios.[3]

Pineda appears to have taken a break from football following his departure from Millonarios, but in January 2019, he signed for Honduran side Platense.[4][5] He started in a 4–2 penalty shoot-out loss to Marathón in the Honduran Supercup.[6] He again returned to Colombia, signing with Categoría Primera B side Llaneros, and went on to make seven league appearances.
