Pablo Abel Argañaraz Paradi (born 21 July 1998) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Liga 1 club PSBS Biak.[3]

Club career

Argañaraz started out at Argentinos del Norte at the age of six, remaining until the age of thirteen when he joined San Martín of San Miguel de Tucumán.[1][4] In 2013, Argañaraz signed for Lanús.[4] He finished as top scorer in his second year in their academy.[5] In January 2019, Argañaraz was loaned to Torneo Federal A with Juventud Antoniana.[3][6] He made his senior debut in a 2–0 defeat to San Martín de Formosa on 3 February.[3] Three further appearances followed, which preceded the centre-forward scoring three goals in three matches against Crucero del Norte, Altos Hornos Zapla and Gimnasia y Tiro.[3]

After nine matches for Juventud Antoniana, Argañaraz returned to Lanús in June 2019 but soon departed on permanent terms to newly promoted Primera División team Central Córdoba.[3] His first appearance didn't arrive until March 2020, when he played the final thirteen minutes of a Copa de la Superliga group stage loss at home to Newell's Old Boys; having replaced Cristian Chávez.[3][7][8] On 7 June 2022, Argañaraz joined San Martín de Tucumán on loan for the rest of the year.[9]

International career

Argañaraz represented Argentina at the 2015 South American U-17 Championship in Paraguay.[3] He made nine appearances, though only three of which were as a starter.[3] In 2016, he was called up to train with the U20s.[10][11]
