Julián Andrés Quiñones Quiñones (born 24 March 1997) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward or winger for Liga MX club América.[2] Born in Colombia, he represents the Mexico national team.[3]

Club career

Tigres UANL

Quiñones joined Liga MX club Tigres UANL from his native Colombia to play in the under-20 squad and was the top goal scorer in the Apertura 2015 season. In 2016, he was loaned out to Ascenso MX side Venados.

2017-18: Loan to Lobos BUAP

In 2017, Quiñones was loaned out to the recently promoted side Lobos BUAP, where he would become the third top goal scorer in the 2017 Apertura season with nine goals. In the 2018 Clausura season, Quiñones would once again be the top goal scorer for Lobos, scoring eight goals, as they finished last in the standings and escaped relegation after paying a fine of 120 million pesos (6 million dollars), due to the winner of the Ascenso MX, Cafetaleros de Chiapas, not being certified to be promoted.[4]

International career

On 11 October 2023, Quiñones completed his naturalization process, making him eligible to represent Mexico. On 9 November, he received his first call-up to the Mexico national team.[5] Quiñones made his debut in a CONCACAF Nations League match against Honduras on 17 November.[6]
