[edit] Football career
A product of Real Racing Club de Santander's youth ranks, Colsa appeared sporadically with the first team (with an unassuming second division stint with CD Logroñés in between) during his first four seasons, although he netted three goals in 19 contests in 2000–01, with Racing being relegated from La Liga.
After appearing for Atlético de Madrid, Real Valladolid and RCD Mallorca, Colsa returned to Santander in 2006–07, as an undisputed starter and one of the team's captains. In his second season in the second spell, he appeared in all the matches as Racing achieved a first-ever UEFA Cup qualification, and netted two goals.
