D.C. United 2019 season review: Leonardo Jara

Leonardo Jara is the first player up in our 2019 season review, and his status is currently up in the air. He was signed in the preseason on loan from Boca Juniors, the powerhouse Argentine club, to shore up D.C. United’s fullback corps. It was already likely that Oniel Fisher was going to be out for a long time (it ended up being the entire year) and Nick DeLeon, who deputized in that position throughout the year, was already on the way out. Also, if you have a chance to sign a starter for Boca Juniors, you would take that chance every time.
