Jorge Rojas Update
By: Dave Martinez | August 26th, 2008
As you may have heard, Jorge Rojas had some visa problems while playing with his Venezuelan National side, and could not reenter the US. Long story short – his passport was found to be damaged to the point of possible forgery back in his native land, and refused his right to travel. Once they found out who he was, his visa was reinstated in ONE DAY. Thats recognition my friends.
Now you may say, “Great! Rojas will be back for the rest of the season!” Slow down.
Venezuelan National Coach Cesar Farias has just named Rojas to a 19 man roster, set to compete against Peru and Paraguay September 3rd and the 6th. This could very well mean missing a crucial Chicago Fire game on the road, and then some (you have to figure recovery right?). Rojas is expected to play in the upcoming clash against DC.
