My Take
Miguel Borja is a striker built around one ruthless purpose: scoring. At 182 cm he is a classic penalty-box predator, and his 2016 breakthrough with Cortuluá, finishing top scorer with 19 goals and earning South American Footballer of the Year, is the stuff of a real grinder's redemption arc. I gravitate toward players who climb the hard way through a string of clubs, and Borja embodies that. His later move to the Middle East only adds to the journeyman charm. The man simply lives to find the net.
