Jamaican defender Brown’s Macedonia transfer hinges on late FedEx package

JAMAICAN centre-back Richard Brown’s chances of playing professional football with Macedonian top-flight outfit FK Skopje has taken a dramatic turn, his signing stalled by a FedEx package sitting in a closed office with a transfer deadline of midnight Sunday, September 6, looming.

Jason McKay, owner of the McKay Security Football Group, which includes McKay New Raiders, said on Friday that Brown’s signing has been left in a precarious position, held up by a FedEx package sent from Jamaica on August 26.

“It has been nine days,” McKay bemoaned. “I have no idea why it has taken so long. The package is now verified to be in Macedonia. However, FedEx isn’t open on weekends.
