“My father Richard Castaño since I was a child was the one who taught me everything I know. I live very grateful. He was my training coach in all training categories at Águilas. He was a coach and played with me until the Sub-20. From there he stepped aside because he dedicated himself to other things, but I owe the training process to my father Richard Castaño ”.

The Colombian has also learned to play alone in the midfield or accompanied by another player, which is why he will become an important option for DT Ricardo Ferretti.
