Nayely Nahomi Bolaños Vera (born 25 February 2003) is an Ecuadorian footballer who plays as a forward for Cuenca and the Ecuador women's national team.
Bolaños learned to play football at the age of 10, participating in youth male football schools that were in her native Ventanas since she showed great conditions in the game. On countless occasions she had difficulties in these schools because the boys resisted a woman playing with them. This only made Bolaños take more courage to fight and win a place on the pitch. In 2016, at the age of 13 years, she debuted with the Club 7 de Febrero where she stayed for 3 years. At the beginning of 2019, María José Benítez, who is the coordinator of the El Nacional, spoke with Bolaños' parents so that she can be part of the Puras Criollas and thus play the nascent Superliga Femenina.[1]
Bolaños started playing at Club 7 de Febrero of Ventanas, where she played until 2018.
In 2019, Bolaños signed for El Nacional, since then she has been the undisputed starter, scoring goals in important matches and being a figure in these matches, she also helped her team to be crowned champion of Superliga Femenina in 2020. Likewise, she was part of the women's national under-16, to compete in Torneo Evolución, which was organized by CONMEBOL in the city of Asunción.[2]
