Freddy Hinestroza Arias (born 5 April 1990) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Colombian club Atlético Bucaramanga.
Born in Medellín, Hinestroza played for lowly CF Ferroválvulas de Medellín before passing in a trial at Atlético Nacional in October 2010. He failed to adapt into his new team, suffering with injuries and having dual registration problems.[2]

On 23 January 2012 Hinestroza moved to La Equidad.[5] He scored his first goal on 17 June, netting his side's last in a 2–2 home draw against Independiente Santa Fe.[6] He was an ever-present midfield unit during Equidad's following campaigns.
On 8 July 2014 Hinestroza moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining La Liga side Getafe CF in a one-year loan deal.[7] He made his debut in the competition on 24 August, coming on as a second half substitute for Pablo Sarabia in a 1–3 away loss against Celta de Vigo.[8]
On 5 August 2015 Hinestroza was loaned to Real Zaragoza in Segunda División, for one year.[9]
Shortly before the 2019 Apertura, Hinestroza joined Atlético Junior.
On 20 December 2023, Hinestroza joined Atlético Bucaramanga for the 2024 season.[10]
