Better Know a US Footballer: Jared Jeffrey, FSV Mainz


At the tender age of 19 he is just on solid food. He attended the IMG Soccer Academy. He has 7 caps and 1 goal for United States youth teams. For the last two years he toiled in the reserves for Club Brugge in Belgium, but never earned a first team place there.

In the 2009-10 winter transfer window, Jared signed a contract with FSV Mainz of the German Bundesliga. Perhaps it will be a fresh start in the Rhineland for the American midfielder. Such American football luminaries such as Conor Casey, and Oguchi Onyewu used to toil for Mainz. Young Preston Zimmerman is also there, with the amateur team FSV Mainz 05 II.

Here’s hoping you get a decent run-out in Germany Jared.
