Former Aston Villa and English-based player Jlloyd Samuel is a relieved man that new FIFA rules will allow him to play for Trinidad and Tobago and he has set his sights on being part of Russell Latapy’s team in the very near future.

Samuel,  born in San Fernando,  wanted to play for T&T at the 2006 World Cup after efforts were made by the TTFF to have him join the squad but FIFA ruled  back then that Samuel was too old to be allowed to play for another country as applications could only have be made by players who are under 21. He had also already made seven appearances for England’s National Under 21 team.
