Leonardo Castro (born May 12, 1989 in Bogotá) is a Colombian football forward, who currently plays for Kaizer Chiefs in the Premier Soccer League.[1]
Style of play
Castro is capable of playing a variety of positions up-front, but his technical ability and positional sense makes him effective as a deep-lying-forward. His knack of allowing more creative players roam around with more freedom has been credited for the success of Keagan Dolly and Khama Billiat at the Brazilians.
