Nicknamed Rifle, Pandolfi started his professional career with Vélez Sársfield. He was often compared to Uruguayan star Enzo Francescoli due to their similar characteristics on the field. Pandolfi played 104 games with the club between 1994 and 2000. He also made a short spell on loan in the Italian Serie A with Perugia in 1997.

Towards the end of his career, Pandolfi signed for Boca Juniors. As a Xeneize, he replicated the success once achieved with Vélez by winning the Copa Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup, but this time in consecutive years. He left Boca without scoring a league goal, but scored five in international competitions. In 2002, while making his third spell with Vélez Sarsfield, Pandolfi announced his retirement from football at the age of 28.

After football

In 2002 Pandolfi retired from football to dedicate himself entirely to music with his band, Actitud Sospechosa. In the same year, he was invited onstage by Los Piojos during a show at the Luna Park stadium to play guitar on their cover of Chuck Berry's "Around & Around". They released one album, Rockable.
