Phillip Watts, Minister of Sport and Youth Affairs, says Cabinet has agreed to approve the Citizenship of the Republic of T&T Amendment Bill 2025 and also agreed that this bill is to be introduced in parliament at its earliest opportunity.
The announcement comes as great news for the T&T Football Association (T&TFA) in its effort to widen the talent pool of the senior men’s national football team and coach Dwight Yorke in their bid to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Finals to be jointly hosted in the USA, Canada and Mexico.
However, the news comes too late for coach Yorke to utilise any of his players he may have under consideration for his team’s opening two matches starting tonight versus Curacao in their Group B Concacaf World Cup Qualification Final Round opener against Curacao at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo, from 8 pm, while they travel to Kingston, Jamaica, to meet that country on Tuesday, September 9, from 8 pm as well.
