Antonio, Bailey, Morrison return to Reggae Boyz squad for El Salvador, USA World Cup qualifying games

West Ham United striker Michail Antonio, Aston Villa man Leon Bailey, and Derby County's Ravel Morrison have all been recalled to the Reggae Boyz squad named by the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) for their upcoming FIFA World Cup qualifiers against El Salvador and the United States (US) this month.

There was speculation whether Antonio would don the black, green, and gold again after he declined an invitation for three games last month because of not being able to have his personal physical trainer travel with him. However, with the JFF granting approval for Antonio to now fly him for games, out of his own pocket, the 28-year-old has taken up the offer of another call-up.

Bailey, who moved to Villa last summer, suffered from recurring injuries but got his first start in the Premier League on Sunday in a 4-1 loss to Antonio's side.

Morrison, who made his local debut in a 3-0 loss to Panama at the National Stadium in September, returns to the squad after doubts about his future with the team.

He, like Antonio, missed the three games last month. However he would have been ineligible to travel for the game in the US because of visa complications.

Jamaica travel to San Salvador to meet the El Salvadorians on Friday, November 12, before returning home to face the US on November 16 at the National Stadium in Kingston. The latter game will be played exactly 24 years to the day the Reggae Boyz drew 0-0 with Mexico at the same venue to secure qualification for their first and only FIFA World Cup Finals, in France 98.
