Jamaican international footballer Kasey Palmer is set to miss eight to ten weeks of action following a knee injury sustained during the recent World Cup qualifying matches, as reported by UK media outlets. The Hull Daily Mail revealed that the 28-year-old midfielder returned from international duty last week with a medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury, potentially keeping him out of play until early next year. Palmer featured prominently in Jamaica’s 4-0 triumph over Bermuda at Kingston’s National Stadium last Tuesday but was absent from the previous match against Curacao due to a suspension. His injury comes at a critical juncture for the Reggae Boyz, who are vying for a spot in the World Cup. With two crucial games left in the final qualification round—an away fixture against Trinidad and Tobago and a home clash with Curacao in November—Jamaica currently leads Group B with nine points, narrowly ahead of Curacao with eight and Trinidad and Tobago with five.
