Kristian Samuel Armenteros Nunez Jansson (born 27 May 1990), known as Samuel Armenteros, is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Chinese Super League club Shenzhen Peng City.

Club career

Born in Masthugget, Gothenburg, Sweden, to a Cuban father and a Swedish mother, Armenteros moved to the Netherlands at age 16 to join SC Heerenveen's youth system, and made it into the first team under head coach Gertjan Verbeek. He was successively released by Heerenveen in 2009, and later chose to rejoin Verbeek at Heracles Almelo, where he showed himself as a promising striker and managed to score his first Eredivisie goals.

In September 2015, Armenteros signed a two-year contract with reigning Azerbaijan Premier League Champions FK Qarabağ.[1]

Benevento

Under FIFA rules, he couldn't play for a third team that used that calendar, and any transfer would require going to a league that plays on a spring-to-fall calendar.[4][5]

Loan to Portland Timbers

In February 2018, Armenteros was loaned by Benevento to Portland Timbers of Major League Soccer.[6] He won MLS's Goal of the Week twice in a row in May 2018.[7] His loan contract expired on 31 December 2018, and he returned to Benevento.[8]

Al-Kholood

On 11 August 2023, Armenteros joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Kholood.[12][13] On 14 January 2024, Armenteros was released from his contract.[14]

Shenzhen Peng City

On 29 February 2024, Armenteros joined Chinese Super League club Shenzhen Peng City.[15]

International career

Having appeared for the Sweden U17, U19, and U21 teams a total of 18 times, Armenteros made his full international debut for Sweden on 13 June 2017 in a friendly 1–1 draw with Norway.[16] He also scored first his international goal in that game, 13 minutes after coming on as a substitute for John Guidetti.[17]

Armenteros made his competitive international debut for Sweden on 31 August 2017 in a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Bulgaria when he replaced Jakob Johansson in the 82nd minute of a 3–2 loss.[18]
