Quartet of Hatters are called up for international duty
Palmer, Wells, Jones and Ioannides are all selected
Luton Town have had a further quartet of players called up for international duty this week.
Following Callum Marshall and Jamie Donley’s selection for Northern Ireland, plus Emilio Lawrence joining up with the Scotland U21s, summer signing Kasey Palmer has been named by head coach Rudolph Speid in Jamaica’s squad for their first two games of their 2026-2027 Concacaf Nations League campaign.
The Reggae Boyz, drawn in Group B along with Honduras, Martinique, El Salvador, Guatemala and Suriname, will kick off the first round at the National Stadium against Guatemala on Friday, before welcoming Honduras four days later on Tuesday, September 29.
Palmer, who has played 23 times for his country since making his debut back in March 2021, was part of the side who weren’t able to reach the World Cup last summer, his last outing being the 1-0 final defeat against DR Congo earlier this year, and is now back in the squad along with goalkeeper and captain Andre Blake, plus Tyreece Campbell, Richard King, Karoy Anderson and forward Renaldo Cephas.
The top two teams from the two Nations League preliminary groups will qualify for the finals where they will be drawn alongside the ranked teams, two-time defending champions Mexico, the USA, Canada and Panama in the quarter-finals.
Forward Nahki Wells is back in the Bermuda squad for their upcoming CONCACAF Nations League Group B matches against Guadeloupe and St Lucia. The Gombey Warriors begin their campaign against Guadeloupe on Friday, which will be the first competitive match for new head coach John Barry Nusum, who has taken over the reins after the departure of Michael Findlay.
Bermuda then take on St Lucia on Monday, as after the first two matches, they will travel to Barbados to play the home nation twice on October 2 and 5. Wells, who has scored 20 times in 30 matches for his country, is another who is back in the squad for the first time since October last year, missing the last five internationals.
Attacker Izzy Jones is in the Guyana squad for their matches in League B of the CONCACAF Nations League. Firstly, the Golden Jaguars, under head coach Marco Bonofiglio, will take on Puerto Rico on Thursday, as they also host Cayman Islands on Sunday. The 27-year-old has scored six goals in eight fixtures, including a hat-trick against Guatemala, last turning out for his country in March 2025.
Finally, U21s player Zach Ioannides is in the Cyprus U21s squad once more for their UEFA EURO U21 qualifying matches as they take on Romania U21s on Friday, before they visit Kosovo U21s on Wednesday, September 30. Cyprus, who are second from bottom in their group, also host San Marino U21s on Tuesday, October 6 as well.
