Career

[edit]

Jara started playing for Comisión de Actividades Infantiles (C.A.I.), a team from the southern city of Comodoro Rivadavia, and Deportivo Madryn.[2] He was an important part of the team that avoided relegation from the Primera B Nacional (second division) during the 2007–08 season after defeating Patronato in the relegation playoff. Jara scored two goals in the second game to secure the 5–1 overall victory.[3]

Jara joined Godoy Cruz in the Argentine First Division for the 2009-10 season.[4] He scored the first goal of the Apertura tournament on Godoy Cruz' victory 2–0 over Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata.[5] He also scored one goal and assisted in another in Godoy Cruz' historical 3–2 victory against Boca Juniors in the Bombonera stadium.[6]

In January 2010 Jara joined Chilean side Huachipato.[7] However, he returned to his home country in August of that same year, joining second division side Chacarita Juniors.

Jara signed with FC Dallas of Major League Soccer on August 7, 2012.[8] However, he was released just three months later without making a first team appearance.[9]

Back in Argentina, Jara played for Central Córdoba de Santiago del Estero, Güemes, Sportsman [es], C.A.I.,[10] Huracán de Comodoro Rivadavia and Petroquímica de Comodoro Rivadavia.[11][12] In 2024, he played for Florentino Ameghino at amateur level.[13]
