Adolfo Bautista Herrera (born 15 May 1979), also known as "Bofo", is a Mexican former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder and centre-forward. Bautista is remembered for his powerful shot, creative ball control, and acrobatic moves, as well as for his extravagant style; especially his colorful hairstyles and unusual squad numbers. He played for a variety of teams, most notably for Guadalajara, as well as the Mexico national team. He also appeared in the 2010 FIFA World Cup representing Mexico. Bautista oftentimes threw his cleats into the crowd as part of his goal celebration. In October of 2024, following the mid-season departure of former Guadalajara manager Fernando Gago, Bautista criticized Gago for leaving the team mid-season to manage Boca Juniors. Bofo stated that Gago was “a piece of trash as a football manager”. Bautista then posted a story to his personal Instagram account where he stated that Gago is a “mercenary” and that Gago made the decision to “join a small team”. Along with these claims, Bofo posted a video of his goal against Boca Juniors from the 2005 Copa Libertadores, in which Gago was playing for Boca Juniors in the same match.
