Ángel Rojas

Universidad de Chile and Everton

Rojas came through the youth ranks of Universidad de Chile and made his first-team debut in 2004. He was part of the squad that won the 2004 Apertura before spending the 2006 season on loan at Everton. After returning to Universidad de Chile in 2007, he rejoined Everton on loan for the 2008 season. At Everton, Rojas was part of the team that won the 2008 Apertura. He made 18 appearances during the tournament and scored once. His goal came in a 3–2 away victory over Unión Española in March 2008, a result that moved Everton into sole possession of first place in the championship. Everton subsequently defeated Colo-Colo in the championship final to claim its first league title since 1976. Rojas returned to Universidad de Chile in 2009 and became a regular during the team's successful Apertura campaign. He scored once during the championship, and started both legs of the final against Unión Española, which Universidad de Chile won 2–1 on aggregate. Following the 2009 season, Rojas left Universidad de Chile after the expiration of his contract and signed for Brazilian Série A club Goiás. He was the club's first announced signing ahead of the 2010 season. His spell in Brazil was brief, and he returned to Universidad de Chile in June 2010 after struggling to establish himself as a regular starter. His return came as the club prepared for the semi-finals of the 2010 Copa Libertadores.
