Kristiano Samuel Armenteros Nunez Mendoza Jansson (born 27 May 1990) is a Swedish footballer of Cuban descent who plays as a striker for Heracles Almelo in the Dutch Eredivisie.
Born in Masthugget, Gothenburg, Sweden, to a Cuban father and a Swedish mother, Armenteros moved to the Netherlands at age 16 to join SC Heerenveen's youth system, and made it into the first team under head coach Gertjan Verbeek. He was successively released by Heerenveen in 2009, and later chose to rejoin Verbeek at Heracles Almelo, where he showed himself as a promising striker and managed to score his first Eredivisie goals.
In September 2015, Armenteros signed a two-year contract with reigning Azerbaijan Premier League Champions FK Qarabağ.
On 29 August 2016, Armenteros returned to Heracles Almelo, signing a one-year contract with the club.
