Goalkeeper from Germany’s fifth-tier makes Haiti’s World Cup squad

Haiti goalkeeper Josué Duverger, 26, has been named in Haiti's 26-man World Cup squad despite playing for Cosmos Koblenz in Germany's fifth-tier Oberliga Rheinland. The Canadian-born shot-stopper joined the amateur club in 2024 after spells in Portugal and will serve as a backup to captain Johny Placide. Duverger's selection marks a notable story as no Haitian player has previously appeared in the Bundesliga.
