Miguel Borja

Miguel Borja is a striker built around one ruthless purpose: scoring. At 183 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 moves through the Middle East and on to Club América in Mexico only add to the journeyman charm. The man simply lives to find the net.
