STATESBORO, Ga. – South Georgia Tormenta FC is excited to confirm the return of Chilean goalkeeper Pablo Jara ahead of the 2021 USL League One season. After three seasons with the club, Jara has signed a new contract for another three years between the net for Tormenta FC, pending league and federation approval.
“In Pablo, we believe we have a USL Championship caliber goalkeeper,” TFC Head Coach Ian Cameron said. “So as we map our plan for a successful 2021 campaign, Pablo remains an integral part.
“As Pablo nears his peak maturity as a goalkeeper, we aim to give him the platform to take us into playoff contention and further his career opportunities. Off the field, you would be hard pushed to find another player in any league who carries himself more professionally than Pablo, which is a testament to his family and mentors.”
A finalist for USL League One Goalkeeper of the Year in 2020, Jara played every minute of the regular season for a second consecutive season and finished third in League One for saves with 49. The Chilean netminder also raised his save percentage to 69 percent and recorded four clean sheets, third-highest in the league.
