Football career

Born in Buenos Aires, Jony started his career with hometown's Chacarita Juniors, and made his debut as a professional on 5 June 2011, starting in a 0–0 draw at Boca Unidos for the Primera B Nacional championship.[1] He appeared in two further matches during the campaign, as his side finished in a comfortable mid-table position.

On 1 February 2012 Jony moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Sevilla FC.[2] However, due to bureaucratic problems, he only played for the Juvenil squad.[3]

Jony was promoted to the Andalusians' reserve squad in the 2012 summer, becoming a starter afterwards.

Personal life

Jonathan is the brother of fellow footballer Nahuel Menéndez.[4][5]
