Bautista Maillier: A Rising Star in Colón
Originally from Santo Tomé, Bautista Maillier joined the club’s youth division at the age of 12. Since then, he has demonstrated consistent growth, securing a spot on the Reserve team. His performance this season is noteworthy.
Performance Highlights

This season, Maillier’s skills have caught the attention of the professional coaching staff. In April, he received his first call-up to train with the first team.
