KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Jamaica Observer has received credible information indicating that Demarai Gray, a pivotal winger for the Reggae Boyz, might be sidelined for Friday’s crucial Concacaf World Cup qualifier against Curacao. Gray sustained an injury during a training session at Sabina Park on Tuesday, casting uncertainty over his participation in the upcoming match. While the severity of his injury remains unclear, his absence would be a significant blow to the team. Gray previously missed September’s fixtures against Bermuda and Trinidad and Tobago due to injury. Speculation has arisen that Chelsea’s Dujuan “Whisper” Richards could step in as a replacement, though reliable sources have tempered such claims for now. Currently, the team faces no additional injury concerns, with only Kasey Palmer and Isaac Hayden ruled out due to suspension. Jamaica, leading their group with six points, will face Curacao, who have four points, at the Ergilio Hato Stadium on Friday at 6:00 pm. The stakes are high, as only the group winner will secure a spot in next summer’s FIFA World Cup.
