Jean Franco Sarmiento Campo (born 7 February 1997) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Polish club Polonia Bytom.
Sarmiento was born on 7 February 1997 in Santa Marta, Colombia, a city of which he is a native of, and has three sisters. Growing up, he regarded Colombia international Radamel Falcao as his football idol. [1]
As a youth player, Sarmiento joined the youth academy of Colombian side Águilas Doradas, where he started his senior career. Following his stint there, he signed for Colombian side Tigres FC. Ahead of the second half of the 2020–21 season, he signed for Polish side Pogoń Grodzisk Mazowiecki, helping the club achieve promotion from the Polish fourth tier to the third tier. [2] In 2023, he signed for Ekstraklasa side Radomiak Radom. The same year, he was sent on loan to second-tier club Odra Opole.
On 22 January 2025, Sarmiento joined II liga club Polonia Bytom on an eighteen-month deal. [3]
Sarmiento can play as a forward, winger, or midfielder. Former Pogoń Grodzisk Mazowiecki manager Krzysztof Chrobak described him as a "player with great individual skills, good technique and 1 vs 1 play. He has a flair for combination play. Jean's strong point is the ability to block, keep the ball, which is hard to take away from him". [4]
