Édier Ocampo Vidal (born 3 October 2003) is a Colombian footballer who currently plays as a full-back for Atlético Nacional.
Born in Tumaco, Ocampo began his career with grassroots side Sur Oriente, joining at the age of seven.[2] He was first scouted by professional side Atlético Nacional at the age of 13, but could not join due to a knee injury.[2] He featured in a game against the side at under-17 level, and after impressing, was offered a place in the academy.[2]
He was loaned to Categoría Primera B side Fortaleza C.E.I.F. for the 2022 season, and went on to make seventeen appearances.[3] In June 2023, he was linked with a move to German Bundesliga side Union Berlin.[4]
Ocampo has been part of the Colombian under-20 set up since 2021, and was called up for the 2022 Maurice Revello Tournament. During the penalty shoot-out following a 0–0 draw with Venezuela, Ocampo celebrated after scoring his penalty by dancing, a move reminiscent of Colombian national team player Yerry Mina, who did the same in a penalty shoot-out loss to Argentina in the 2021 Copa América.[5] Ocampo's goal had made the score 4–3, with Colombia only needing to score one more goal to win the game, however they missed their next three, and Ocampo received criticism for celebrating prematurely.[5]
He was called up to the squad again for the 2023 South American U-20 Championship, and was lauded for his performance in the opening game against Paraguay.[6] He was then part of the squad for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and was injured after a strong challenge by Miguel Monsalve before the group stage game against Japan, with compatriot Devan Tanton being reported as his replacement.[7] However, he played in the game before being replaced in the closing minutes by Tanton.
Ocampo has listed former Colombian international Juan Camilo Zúñiga as his idol, while listing teammate Dorlan Pabón as a player he looks to for inspiration.[8]
