Juan David Marín Correa (born 4 March 1998) is a Colombian footballer currently playing as a forward for Honduran side Arsenal SAO-Cantarranas.

Club career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Marín began his career with Club Deportivo Formadores, before playing for Pedreguer and footballing academy Somnus in Spain and Mexico respectively.[2]

La Equidad[edit]

Marín was a contestant on Colombian television show Sueño Fútbol, broadcast on RCN Televisión in 2016. Having won the competition, and being offered a contract by a number of first-division Colombian football clubs, he decided to join La Equidad, and explained in an interview with Pulzo [es] that he had made his choice based on La Equidad's offer being "the most complete contract" that "best suited the needs of a young man of my age".[3]

After two years with the under-20 squad, Marín spent the end of the 2018 season in Mexico, training with Potros UAEM, as was part of his agreement with La Equidad.[3][4] He was promoted to the first team in January 2019, and featured in a pre-season friendly against Deportivo Pasto, before making his debut in August of the same year, coming on as a substitute for Armando Vargas [es] in a 2–1 Categoría Primera A loss to Cúcuta Deportivo.[4]

Later career[edit]

After a break from football, he joined Nicaraguan club Deportivo Ocotal in February 2022.[2][5] After less than a year with the club, he departed, moving to Honduras to sign with Arsenal SAO-Cantarranas in the Honduran Liga Nacional de Ascenso, the country's second division.[6]

International career[edit]

Though never called up to represent Colombia at any level in football, Marín represented the nation in minifootball at the Under-23 WMF World Cup in 2021, as Colombia beat the Czech Republic in the final to win the competition.[7][8]
