Football career

A product of Newell's Old Boys' youth ranks, Pendín could never impose himself in its first team, also being loaned two times, including once in Uruguay with Huracán Buceo. Aged 23, he was released and moved to Spain, with lowly Real Oviedo Vetusta, Real Oviedo's reserves - never appearing for the main squad.

In division three, Pendín played with Burgos CF, promoting in 2001 but being relegated the following year. He continued to be a regular in the following seasons in that division, with Andalusia's Xerez CD.

Aged already 32, Pendín moved to CD Castellón also in level two, amassing nearly 100 official appearances for the Valencian side. After the club's relegation in 2009–10, the veteran continued in the country, signing with third level team Pontevedra CF.
