Hanging out with javier margas road to rio
Colo-Colo

Margas experienced the most successful period in his career with his first club Colo-Colo, where he was part of four league championship winning squads. He was also part of the club's famous Copa Libertadores win in 1991, and also won two other international tournaments.
Club América

In 1995 Margas joined Club América in Mexico but didn't settle, returning to Colo-Colo in 1996.
Universidad Católica

Margas then joined Universidad Católica, where he was part of the squad that won the 1997 Apertura.
West Ham United

Margas' last years as a player were spent with West Ham United. He scored once during his spell with West Ham, in a 5–0 win over Coventry City in April 2000. Margas gained notoriety for disappearing from England without a trace and many weeks passed before he was found in his home country. Margas retired in 2001 and returned to Chile.
Personal life

Margas was famous for dyeing his hair in different colours and shapes (most notably with the Chilean flag colours).

Since retiring from football, Margas has worked as a youth coach at Colo-Colo, appeared on a reality TV show called Expedición Robinson, ran his own business, and bought dictator Augusto Pinochet's armoured car.
International career
Margas played 63 times for the Chile national team. He played in Chile's four games at the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
