19-year-old Andy Rojas shines as a standout player in Costa Rica's national team, receiving praise from coach Miguel Herrera.
At just 19 years of age, Andy Rojas is emerging as a significant talent in Costa Rican football.

Currently a national champion, Rojas has already made a name for himself with the Costa Rican national team, marking his presence with a key goal in a World Cup qualifying match against Saint Kitts and Nevis.

The head coach of the Costa Rica national team, Miguel 'Piojo' Herrera, known for his successful stints in international football, has publicly commended Rojas for his impressive abilities on the field.

Rojas, who has earned four caps with the national team, is recognized for his attacking skills, spatial awareness, and technical proficiency.

Recently, Rojas was called up to join the Costa Rican squad for a friendly match against the United States, alongside notable teammates such as Allan Cruz and Esteban Alvarado.

The young forward’s potential has sparked interest beyond the national league, with clubs from Mexico, the United States, and Europe reportedly showing interest.

Herrera pointed out Rojas’s mental acuity, citing his focus and maturity despite his youth.

The coach emphasized that Rojas is well aware of his potential to break into international football, and his current trajectory aligns with efforts to elevate Costa Rica’s presence in the global soccer arena.

Rojas is currently contracted with Herediano, a club in the Costa Rican top division, whose management has hinted at significant transfer opportunities on the horizon for the young player.

As preparations continue for further international fixtures, Rojas’s performance against the United States is seen as another opportunity to showcase his skills on a larger stage.
