Reggae Boy Kevon Lambert Signs For Phoenix Rising FC

Reggae Boy Kevon Lambert’s efforts in Jamaica’s successful Gold Cup campaign have seemingly not gone unnoticed. 

The 20-year-old midfielder who earned his international debut for Jamaica earlier this year in a 1-0 win over Honduras has signed for Phoenix Rising Football Club in the United Soccer League (USL).

The USL, formerly known as USL Pro, is a professional men’s soccer league in the United States and Canada that began its inaugural season in 2011.

Lambert started four games for Jamaica during the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup, including a 2-1 quarterfinal win over Canada at the University of Phoenix Stadium.

  

He previously played football at Glenmuir High School, where he won the 2012 DaCosta Cup, and was named captain in his last year.

After leaving Glenmuir, he spent time on trial with Premier League club West Ham before joining Montego Bay United in 2016.  Phoenix Rising FC signed Lambert on August 10, 2017.
