Jordy Joao Monroy Ararat (Armenian: Ժորդի Ժոաո Մոնրոյ Արարատ; born 3 January 1996) is a professional footballer who plays as a right-back or right midfielder for Colombian club Deportivo Pereira, on loan from Santa Fe. Born in Colombia, he played for the Armenia national team.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Bogotá, Monroy played from the age of 11 in the youth system of his hometown club Independiente Santa Fe. He made his debut on 1 November 2015 in Categoría Primera A, starting in a 1–1 home draw with Envigado.[2] He totalled nine competitive appearances for the club, filling in when the regulars were rested ahead of continental fixtures, and was released in January 2016.[2]

Following his release, he had an unsuccessful trial with a French Ligue 2 club, Patriotas Boyacá and a farm team of América de Cali, before becoming an Uber driver.[2] He then had a choice between signing for Boyacá Chicó or Cúcuta Deportivo and chose the former, whom he helped win Categoría Primera B in 2017.[2]

Boyacá Chicó were relegated back to the second tier at the end of the 2018 season. On 27 August 2019, Monroy scored his first senior goal to open a 3–2 home win over Cortuluá.[3]

On 21 July 2020, Armenian Premier League club FC Noah announced the signing of Monroy.[4] On 5 July 2022, Noah announced that Monroy had left the club after his contract had expired.[5]

On 19 July 2022, Monroy returned to his homeland and signed a one-year contract with DIM.[6]

In June 2023 he joined Deportivo Pereira.[7]

International career

[edit]

Being an Afro-Colombian, Monroy qualified to play for Armenia through his mother Lucelia, who is an Armenian national of African-American heritage.[8] He was called up for the first time in May 2018 ahead of friendlies against Malta and Moldova, and debuted against the former in a 1–1 draw on 29 May.[9]
