Jamaica’s squad for the Copa America was packed with players from the English Football League.
Coventry City duo Kasey Palmer and Joel Latibeaudiere, Millwall’s Wes Harding, Di’Shon Bernard from Sheffield Wednesday and Michael Hector of Charlton were among the EFL’s band of Reggae Boyz.
But we are going to highlight Hector’s 19-year-old team-mate Karoy Anderson – a man whose middle name is Zidane.
The midfielder had not played an EFL game until the start of last season, having spent the start of 2023 on loan at National League side Aldershot Town where he featured five times.
But by this summer he had established himself in the Addicks’ line-up and was called up for the Copa America after making his Jamaica debut last October.
He played against Ecuador and Venezuela as Jamaica lost all three of their group games.
Anderson also played in Jamaica’s World Cup qualifying win over Dominican Republic in June and made his first start three days later in a 3-2 win over Dominica.
