Esteban Paredes

Esteban Paredes is the kind of striker who gives me chills for staying home. Five-time top scorer in Chile's Primera División, more than 286 career league goals and the country's all-time scoring record, he built a legend not in a European league but on home soil at clubs like Colo-Colo. South American football tends to celebrate the players who leave, yet I am far more moved by the one who put down roots and kept burying chances until he became history. Now managing from the dugout, he strikes me as a national treasure adored on the pitch and off it alike.
