ColombiaBrother to fellow Dragoon Joseph Vargas, Maickel relocated to Krakow for work while continuing to pursue his lifelong ambition on the pitch. Having spent his early career honing his skills in competitive street and neighbourhood tournaments back home in Colombia, joining the Expats marks his official step into 11-a-side league football.
Equally adept operating as a traditional number 10 or secondary striker, Maickel brings flair and link-up play to the front line, alongside a welcome willingness to roll up his sleeves and get stuck in when the game gets physical.
Maickel made his official Dragoons bow as a substitute in 2-1 home reverse against Tramwaj II in September 26.
