Pablo Fernando Aurrecochea Medina (born March 3, 1981) is an Uruguayan former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He was known for wearing kits adorned with cartoon characters such as Tom and Jerry, Krusty the Clown, The Incredible Hulk, Batman, He-Man, El Chapulín Colorado and others.[1]
Career
Aurrecochea was born in Artigas, Uruguay. He started his professional football career with Uruguayan football club Nacional. After he moved to Argentina, first with Argentinos Juniors and then Talleres de Remedios de Escalada, he started to establish himself as a first-choice goalkeeper. This would see him move to Paraguayan Primera División side Tacuary. He then became a regular for several seasons of the team until the 2007 league season saw him loaned off to another Paraguayan side in Cerro Porteño. Pablo would return from his loan period and play for Tacuary again in a further five league games. However, that wasn't enough for him to regain his position within the team and he left to join top tier Colombian side Bucaramanga.
In 2009, Aurrecochea would join another Paraguayan side in Guaraní and was initially tried out in some of the 2009 Copa Libertadores group games.[2] Throughout the league season he would gradually go on to establish himself at the club and by the 2010 Paraguayan Primera División season he was part of the team that won the 2010 Apertura.
