Francisco Argüello (born 12 August 1982 in Villarrica, Paraguay) is a former Paraguayan football player, who spent most of his career playing for several clubs in the Liga de Fútbol Profesional Boliviano.

Club career

Argüello joined Real Mamoré in 2006 at the age of 26, and played 35 games for the team during his first year. In 2007, he was named Best Player for Real Mamore, as he helped the club to avoid relegation.

Argüello then signed with Oriente Petrolero in 2009, where in his 1st season he helped the team to qualify for Copa Sudamericana.

On 21 September Argüello suffered a double break of his lower right leg during an away match against Colombia's Deportes Tolima in Copa Sudamericana. As Argüello tried to shoot on goal, Tolima's defender John Hurtado attempted to block the shot with his foot. Hurtado caught Argüello on the shin with the sole of his foot as Argüello struck the shot, and the combined force of Argüello swinging leg and Hurtado's lunging block caused Argüello's Tibia and Fibua to break.[1] Currently, the extent of the damage is unknown and no return date has been set for Argüello. Hurtado received a yellow card for the foul.[2]

In June 2012, Argüello signed for Blooming.
