David Arellano
Colo Colo Bicycle Kicks (Art Print)

Europe saw the bicycle kick. They called it La Chilena.

Chile. 1920s.

David Arellano — footballer, captain, founder of Colo-Colo and an early master of one of the game's great acrobatic techniques.

THE GOALSOUL INTERPRETATION

Colo-Colo Bicycle Kicks connects one of Chilean football's founding figures with La Chilena.

Arellano was closely associated with the overhead technique and displayed it internationally with Chile before captaining Colo-Colo on its pioneering 1927 European tour.

The exact origin of the bicycle kick remains disputed, and Arellano need not be called its inventor for his role to matter.

Chile supplied the player. Europe saw the kick. Football remembered La Chilena.
