Carlos Percy Liza Espinoza (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpeɾki ˈlisa]; born 10 April 2000), also known as Mbaliza, due to his physical resemblance to Kylian Mbappe, is a Peruvian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Peruvian Primera División club Melgar. Born and raised in the city of Chimbote, at the age of 17 he settled in Lima, where Sporting Cristal agreed to discipline him after his transfer to the capital. After a rapid progression through the reserve team, proclaiming himself Torneo de Promoción y Reserva in 2018, he made his official debut with the first team in April 2019 at the age of 18. After being prone to injuries early in his career, he established one more season in reserve reaching the two-time championship that year. The following year he established himself as a fundamental player for the club, winning his first title in the 2020 season. Another season followed, in which Liza managed to win the Torneo Apertura, Copa Bicentenario and would be proclaimed runner-up in the tournament.
