Career
[edit | edit source]Born in Pamplona, Navarre,[1] Pinillos played for local side CD Izarra as a youth. He made his first team debut at the age of 17 on 23 May 2021, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–1 Segunda División B away draw against Barakaldo CF.[2]
In 2021, Pinillos joined UD Mutilvera; initially a member of the Juvenil squad, he played one match for the B-team in the Primera Autonómica, before making his first team debut on 6 February 2022, playing the last six minutes in a 2–0 Segunda División RFEF loss to former side Izarra.[3] In July, he joined the structure of Deportivo Alavés, being initially a member of the C-team in the regional leagues.
Pinillos also featured for the reserves shortly after arriving, but only became a regular starter for the side during the 2024–25 season. On 12 July 2025, while making the pre-season with the main squad, he renewed his contract until 2027.[4]
Pinillos made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 22 August 2025, replacing Antonio Blanco late into a 1–0 away draw against Real Betis.[5][6]
