Yerry Fernando Mina González (born 23 September 1994) is a professional Colombian footballer who plays as a center back for Brazilian club Palmeiras.
He began at Deportivo Pasto in 2013, quickly making a name for himself and establishing himself as a starter.
Palmeiras confirmed that they had signed Yerry Mina on May 1st 2016. He made his debut for the club on 4 July playing a full 90 minutes in a 1-3 victory over Sport Recife. His first goal for the Alviverde arrived in the following fixture, a 1-1 draw against Santos.
Mina was however substituted off just before the end of the first half due to an apparent injury which had left the defender in tears as he exited the field on a stretcher.
On 13 July it was confirmed that Mina would not recover in time for the 2016 Summer Olympics, with the expectancy of the injury estimated to be 6-8 weeks. In his debut season in Palmeiras he made the 2016 Serie A TOTY and was named the best defender.
Meanwhile, he's become a key part of Jose Pekerman's Colombia side.
