Jean Pierre Archimbaud Arriarán (born 16 August 1994) is a Peruvian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Alianza Lima.
He has made over 250 Peruvian Primera División appearances for UTC Cajamarca, Ayacucho, Juan Aurich, Real Garcilaso, Deportivo Municipal and Melgar. Having left Alianza at the start of his career without making a senior appearance, he returned for the 2025 season.
Archimbaud made his senior international debut for Peru in 2024, aged 30.
Early career
Born in Lima, Archimbaud began playing football aged 3 at Academia Cantolao under coach Dante Mandriotto. He then went on to Sporting Cristal and Alianza Lima.[1]
In 2011, Archimbaud won the Torneo de Promoción y Reserva with Alianza.[2] His only call-up to the first team was on 18 February 2012 on the first day of the Peruvian Primera División season; he was an unused substitute in a 2–2 home draw with León de Huánuco with both teams fielding youth players due to a players' strike.[3]
On 17 January 2014, Archimbaud was loaned to UTC Cajamarca.[2] After further loans to second-tier Deportivo Coopsol and Ayacucho, he signed for Juan Aurich in January 2017.[4] He scored his first eight goals for the club, before transferring to Real Garcilaso for the new season.[5]
For 2020, Archimbaud signed for Deportivo Municipal, earning himself a contract for a second year.[6] He left in November 2021.[7]
Melgar
Archimbaud signed for Melgar for 2022.[8] On 12 March, he scored the only goal of a home win over Alianza.[9] He scored his first continental goal on 3 May, an added-time strike to give his ten-man side a 2–1 win away to River Plate Montevideo in the Copa Sudamericana group stage.[10] His team won the Apertura title for winning the first half of the season,[11] eventually finishing the entire campaign as runners-up to Alianza.[12]
Archimbaud signed a new contract in December 2023 for a third year at the club from Arequipa,[13] in which he scored a career-best 12 goals.[14]
Return to Alianza
On 3 December 2024, over a decade after leaving Alianza, Archimbaud returned there on the expiration of his Melgar contract. He signed a two-year deal with the option of a third.[15]
International career
In late August 2024, following his 30th birthday, Archimbaud had his first call-up to the Peru national team, for 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against neighbours Colombia and Ecuador.[16] He made his debut on 6 September against the former at the National Stadium of Peru, playing the final eight minutes.[17]
Personal life
Archimbaud, known as "Chocherita", was one of four sons of journalist Lalo Archimbaud.[1]
