Reinaldo Marcelino Navia Amador, nicknamed "Choro del Puerto" or "El Choro Navia" (born May 10, 1978 in Quilpué), is a Chilean football striker, who currently plays for Liga Deportiva Universitaria de Quito in Ecuador. He was a member of the national squad competing at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.

Navia came to Mexico in 2001, joining Tecos for the Spring season, and immediately started scoring, finishing the season with nine goals in 19 games. Navia would spend two years with Tecos, scoring 32 goals, before moving to Monarcas Morelia for the 2003 Clausura. Navia greatly impressed with Monarcas, scoring 26 goals over the Clausura and Apertura, before making another move, now to Club América. He scored 13 goals with América in the 2004 Clausura, but disappointed in the Apertura, scoring only two goals while fighting injury problems. Navia was than acquired by Monterrey from Club America at the end of Torneo Apertura 2005. After the 2006 Apertura, in which he scored 3 goals for the club, Navia was released and signed by San Luis at the start of the 2006 Clasura. In his lone season with San Luis, Navia scored six goals in twelve appearances. Mexican club Atlas signed the player immediately after the end of the 2006 Clasura in order to have his services for the 2007 Apertura.

In July 2008, Navia signed for a year contract with Liga Deportiva Universitaria de Quito, to play in the National Tournament in Ecuador, Copa Sudamericana, and the FIFA Clubs World Cup. Liga's head coach believes that with playing with Liga he can regain a spot in the Chilean National, and regain his goal scoring capabitly as well.

Navia is also currently a vital player at forward for the Chilean national team, and there he's wearing Iván Zamorano's old number; 9. He made his international debut on February 17, 1999, in a match against Guatemala. It was rumored that he may return to his homeland to play for Colo-Colo to replace the departing Humberto Suazo, however, on July 2007, Colo-Colo announced they would not take him due to his bad behavior during the "2007 Copa América" in Venezuela.
