Club career

edit

Born in Lima, Archimbaud began playing football aged 3 at Academia Cantolao under coach Dante Mandriotto [es], then went on to Sporting Cristal and Alianza Lima.[1] In 2011, he won the Torneo de Promoción y Reserva.[2] His only call-up to Alianza's 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 8 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]

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]

International career

edit

In late August 2024, following his 30th birthday, Archimbaud had his first call-up to the Peru national football team, for 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against neighbours Colombia and Ecuador.[13] He made his debut on 6 September against the former at the National Stadium of Peru, playing the final 8 minutes.[14]

Personal life

edit

Archimbaud, known as "Chocherita", was one of four sons of journalist Lalo Archimbaud.[1]
