By debut, you mean who started a match? He his first match was last week. Edit: Saw the tweet from the PL, it's youngest to score on his first start.

He's played a few minutes and we're discussing rumors of Bayern, BVB😅. Lets not make him out to be the next big thing as we have a tendency to do with every young player.

On 2/9/2021 at 11:19 AM, Shway said: It's crazy how you can go from Premiership/Championship academies to signing with a club 6 levels below. It's the nature of the game... Football can indeed be crazy like that. Clearly whatever that thing was in the 6th tier, it 1) Didn't hurt. 2) Is likely over for now!

Not sure if this England call up changes things but last I knew he was still on board with representing Canada. Just wanted to requote this, he also always reply to twitter. I'm sure he has a Canadian passport being born here. Maybe gets the call to the Gold Cup? Would be redic if we didn't even reach out.

He has played and committed to Canada and scored goals for us. And it is already Yesterday’s news. No one gives a crap. What’s the next shiny thing. No one’s even commenting on Corbeanu’s page site anymore it’s now looking just at Jebbison. Enjoy what you have people. nah, just trying to get as much talent to commit as possible. These are all exciting young players, who could potentially form the backbone of the program for the next 10+ years. dyslexic nam, Ivan and Macksam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not us? Jebbison has more of a connection to Canada than Musah to America, surely. left Canada when he was 14/15 I believe... can't get more Canadian than that honestly. I don't doubt Herdman has been working behind the scenes already, he has yet to give us any reason otherwise when it comes to pursuing young players.

My quick internet reference has him at 17 and left in 2017, so 13 when he left? Agree, he is very much Canadian and I'm sure the boss has already reached out to him.

So 12-13, if the commentator was right. Regardless a significant chunk of his youth was here in Canada. Sounds like he has English family as it is, but what is the youth rule again? 5 years under the age of 17? Edited May 16, 2021 by apbsmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only need a passport for official youth matches (U17, U19, U20, U21, U23 etc) OR Senior level official A friendlies. See the case of Alphonso playing youth friendlies for us. They could have had him in the system in anticipation of the fact that he will likely soon get his passport. johnyb, Dominic94, toontownman and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) He does have British and Jamaican ancestry : they refer to his mom as an England native. Something I read/heard when he made his debut. Will try to find it. Edit: Probably from here: "Born in Oakville, Canada, Jebbison moved to England five years ago with his family after his mother moved back to her native England for work." https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-united/who-is-daniel-jebbison-the-young-sheffield-united-striker-who-made-his-blades-debut-against-crystal-palace-3229403 Edited May 16, 2021 by WestHamCanadianinOxford Olympique_de_Marseille 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
