Career

A product of Universidad Católica, Rojas took part of the Chile under-17 squad in the 1993 FIFA World Championship [1] at the age of fifteen, where they reached the third place. [2] Due to this achievement, the players were given some state benefits in education and housing. [3]

He stayed with Universidad Católica until 1997 and switched to Magallanes in the same year. The next year, he moved to Mexico and joined Querétaro. [4]

Back in Chile, he played for San Luis de Quillota and Ñublense in 1999 and 2000, respectively. [4] In Ñublense, he coincided with Nelson Garrido  [ es ] and Carlos Torres  [ es ], both former fellows in Chile U17. After trying to sign with another club, he retired from football due to the fact that he lost the excitement, according to himself. [2]

Personal life

Rojas is the son of the former Chile international footballer Luis Rojas Álvarez and the older brother of Luis Rojas Zamora, also a Chile international at under-17 level. [5]

Rojas attended University of the Americas and played for the team coached by Claudio Borghi. [6] He also attended INAF  [ es ] (National Football Institute) and subsequently involved in his father's business. [7]
