JHON KENNEDY HURTADO

¡Hola!

I am Jhon Kennedy Hurtado! Yes, my first name is spelled J-h-o-n and is pronounced as 'John'. You may call me "coach" or "coach Jhon". I was born in Colombia. Started to play as a youth player in 1997 and began my professional soccer career in 2004. Appeared in more than 300 games at professional level and several international games like Hannover 96, Chelsea, Everton, Barcelona, Chivas and more. Best known for my fast speed, played in several positions, mostly as Center Back which I enjoyed throughout my career. In the past few years, coaching has been the cornerstone of my life. While coaching kids of all ages, I am looking forward to continuing to pass down my knowledge and the passion I have for the great game of soccer to future generations.
