Haiti’s under-17 national team welcomed a new reinforcement on November 8. Stephen “Kiki” Ramos has officially joined the young Grenadiers’ camp in Brazil as they prepare for the U-17 World Cup, Qatar 2026.
Born in Port-au-Prince and raised in Argentina, the 17-year-old forward plays for Vélez Sarsfield’s youth teams. He previously represented Argentina at U-17 level, notably standing out by scoring a goal recently in a friendly against Ecuador.
After wearing the Albiceleste jersey at youth level, Kiki Ramos was not included by Diego Placente in his preliminary World Cup squad. He therefore chose to represent his country of birth and joined the Haitian group to prepare for the global tournament.
An extra option for the Haitian attack
The addition of Ramos, who has drawn plenty of praise, gives the team’s attack an extra option in a unit already made up of undeniably talented players.
The Grenadiers continue their preparations in Brazil ahead of the start of the competition on November 19 in Qatar. Haiti will open its campaign against France.
