DID YOU KNOW THE MOST FLAMBOYANT MEXICAN GOALKEEPER ALSO PLAYED AS AN ATTACKER?

Jorge Campos, the flamboyant Mexican goalkeeper who had 129 caps started his club career in 1988 in Mexico with Pumas. At that time the club's first-choice goalkeeper was Adolfo Rios but, because Campos desired first-team opportunities, he asked to be used as a striker. He performed notably in his first season, scoring 14 goals and even challenging for the title of top-goalscorer. In the following seasons he earned the position of first-choice goalkeeper and won the 1990-1991 championship with Pumas.
