Bailey expected to remain sidelined until after international break – reports

Jamaican winger Leon Bailey, who sustained an injury shortly after joining Serie A club AS Roma in August, is set to remain out of action until after the upcoming international break, as reported by Italian media. This setback means the 28-year-old is likely to miss Jamaica’s pivotal World Cup qualifying matches against Curaçao on October 10 and Bermuda on October 14. Head coach Steve McClaren is expected to announce the squad for these games on Saturday morning. Jamaica currently leads Group B with six points, holding a two-point advantage over second-placed Curaçao. Trinidad and Tobago trail in third with one point, while Bermuda remains at the bottom with no points. Bailey, who joined Roma on a season-long loan from Aston Villa, has yet to make an impact due to his prolonged recovery from an undisclosed injury, leaving fans disappointed.
