Who is this?
Camilo Andrés Vargas Gil (born 9 March 1989) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Liga MX club Atlas and the Colombia national team. Vargas began his career with Independiente Santa Fe, winning two Categoría Primera A titles and the Copa Colombia in 2009, before moving to Atlético Nacional in 2015. After loan spells with Argentinos Juniors in Argentina and Deportivo Cali in Colombia, he joined Cali permanently and later transferred to Atlas F.C. in 2019. With Atlas he ended a 70-year title drought, leading the club to the Liga MX Apertura 2021, the Clausura 2022, and the Campeón de Campeones, while earning recognition as one of the league's top goalkeepers with two Best XI selections, the Golden Glove, the Balón de Oro for the 2021–22 season, and inclusion in the 2022 MLS All-Star Game. At international level, Vargas made his senior debut for Colombia in 2014 in a friendly against El Salvador. He was named in Colombia's squads for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, the 2015 Copa América, and the 2018 FIFA World Cup, without making an appearance. Vargas was also part of the squad at the 2019 Copa América, again as an unused substitute. He earned his first tournament start at the 2021 Copa América, playing in the third-place play-off against Peru, where Colombia secured the bronze medal. By the 2024 Copa América, Vargas had established himself as Colombia's starting goalkeeper, featuring throughout the tournament as the team finished runners-up.
