Kahiser Miguel Lenis Navarro (born 23 July 2001) is a Panamanian professional footballer who currently plays as a forward for Colombian club Jaguares de Córdoba and the Panama national team.
Club career
[edit]Born in Panama City, Lenis travelled to Spain in early 2020, going on trial with lower-division side CD Alcalá.[3] After not being offered a contract, he joined amateur side CD Rabesa, where he scored four goals in seven games before returning to Panama.[1]
On his return to Panama, he spent a season each with Independiente and San Miguelito, before moving to Colombia and going on trial with Deportes Tolima in late 2022, scoring in a friendly against Bogotá and being pictured in club kit.[4] Despite this, he would instead go on to join Categoría Primera A side Jaguares de Córdoba.[5]
International career
[edit]Lenis was called up to the Panama under-23 side for the 2023 Maurice Revello Tournament, and went on to score in the final as Panama beat Mexico to win the tournament for the first time.[6]
Called up by manager Thomas Christiansen to the senior squad in August 2023, Lenis marked his full international debut with two goals as Panama beat Bolivia 2–1 in a friendly game on 27 August, with Christiansen describing his performance as "spectacular".[7]
In June 2024, he takes part in the Maurice Revello Tournament in France, with Panama.[8]
