Pablo Brenes (born 4 August 1982) is a Costa Rican soccer player, who plays for Cartaginés.
Brenes' first team in MLS was the MetroStars, whom he joined from Municipal Pérez Zeledón in Costa Rica, signing with the team on June 4, 2004. He finished the year with no goals or assists in 14 games. Brenes was then taken by Real Salt Lake in the 2004 MLS Expansion Draft, but never played a game with the team. He was traded to Saprissa for Douglas Sequeira (who was then sent to Chivas USA).
Brenes was a fixture for the Under-23 Costa Rica national football team, and played a major role in the team's run in the 2004 Summer Olympics,[1] impressing many observers. He also earned 2 caps (no goals) for the Ticos in 2005.
With Saprissa, he has won a national championship and a CONCACAF Champions Cup, and was part of the team that played the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship Toyota Cup, where Saprissa finished third behind São Paulo Futebol Clube and Liverpool F.C..
