Jamaica Copa America 2024 squad: Reggae Boyz players going to the USA

Full list of players Jamaica will take to the 2024 Copa America in the USA.

Jamaica will be taking part in just their third Copa America when they land in the USA.

In 2015, Jamaica made their debut appearance in the Copa América tournament, ending up at the bottom of the standings behind Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay. The subsequent year, the squad participated in the Copa América Centenario as champions of the 2014 Caribbean Cup but once again finished last in their group, suffering a 3–0 defeat against Uruguay. Securing their place in the 2024 Copa América, Jamaica advanced to the semifinals of the 2023–24 CONCACAF Nations League A after defeating Canada in the quarterfinals.

GOAL takes you through the list of players who could don the jersey and represent Jamaica in South America's most prestigious football competition.

    GOALKEEPERS

    Andre Blake, who is now 33 years old, is the most experienced goalkeeper in the squad, with over 70 caps to his name. He is expected to be the guardian in goal for Jamaica at the Copa America.

    Jahmali White is a decent backup option if Blake is somehow unable to feature.

    Damion Lowe and Michael Hector are set to form a formidable partnership in the defensive third of the pitch for Jamaica. The likes of Adrian Mariappa and Alvas Powell, both aged 37, were not included in the squad but Sheffield Wednesday defender DiShon Bernard is a promising option to be a guaranteed starter going forward.
