Jess Vanstrattan

Jess Kedwell Vanstrattan (born 19 July 1982) is a retired Australian professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

At just 17 he made his 1st grade debut for the Spirit, playing the last 3 games of the season for the National Soccer League club.

[1] At Verona, aged 19, Vanstrattan was a regular on the bench for the Serie A side and played 54 games in 2 years for the reserve team (Campionato Nazionale Primavera).

However, in early August 2007, the Lega Calcio ruled that the goalkeeper's contract at Juventus was illegal after Verona (as found in a court hearing) falsified documents including the falsification of Vanstrattan's signature in an attempt to block the transfer of the player to Juventus and the transfer was to be cancelled until courts could decide an outcome.

The club was ordered to agree on a loan deal which saw the player return to Juventus on 21 August, in time for the 2007–08 Serie A season.

He was sidelined for several weeks but recovered to play the rest of the season, and after a slow start was able to put in several man of the match performances.

[10] Central Coast had recently lost first choice goal keeper Danny Vukovic to Turkish club Konyaspor.
