The sculpture is located outside the Eduardo Santos soccer stadium. The most representative thing about Pibe Valderrama is his abundant, blonde hair, and in the six-meter statue made of bronze, his hair is made strand by strand with a total of 3,500 pieces of coiled bronze. It was sculpted by Amilkar Ariza who did not leave aside any detail of the renowned soccer player’s face.
