Playing Style
A veteran left-footed shot-stopper still in contention to start for Colombia, Vargas is calm with the ball at his feet and quick off his line, a reassuring organiser of the players in front of him. He stands 1.83 m and is left-footed, a reliable option between the posts at 37.
World Cup History
The 2026 finals will not be Camilo Vargas's first senior World Cup. He was part of Colombia's squads in 2014 and 2018, and Néstor Lorenzo has named the long-serving goalkeeper in the 26 again, back between the posts with a wealth of caps and tournament know-how behind him.
