Jamaica's goalkeeper Blake to miss start of World Cup Qualifiers – caribbeannationalweekly.com

Jamaica’s international goalkeeper Andre Blake, who plays for the Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer (MLS), will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks following meniscus surgery.
The announcement was made by Philadelphia Union head coach Jim Curtin during a press conference last Tuesday.
Curtin provided an update on Blake’s condition, explaining that the goalkeeper has been out of action since the end of April due to the injury. “It was a minor surgery where there were a couple of little loose flaps in there and they cleaned up his meniscus, which had a little minor, minor tear,” Curtin said. “But overall, you guys know how much we miss him and how important he is to this team.”
Blake’s absence is a significant blow for the Reggae Boyz as they begin their 2026 CONCACAF World Cup qualifying campaign. The veteran goalkeeper will miss the opening matches against Dominican Republic. Jamaica will face Dominican Republic on June 6 at the National Stadium in Kingston and will then travel to Dominica for the secondgame on June 9.
Blake’s leadership and shot-stopping abilities have been crucial for both his club and national team, making his absence a major concern for Jamaica as they aim to start their World Cup qualifying campaign on a strong note.
The estimated recovery time of 4-6 weeks means Blake is expected to miss several MLS matches with the Philadelphia Union as well. The team and fans will be eagerly awaiting his return, hoping he can quickly regain match fitness and form once he is back on the field.
