After varied speculation, the 17-year-old was added to the Boyz’ 23-man squad, which includes Pheonix Academy alumni Leon Bailey. Richards’ addition to the squad was announced on Tuesday by the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF).

In addition to Richards’ inclusion in the squad, the JFF announced Javain Brown, Adrian Mariappa, and Renaldo Cephas’ removal from the Reggae Boyz’ Nations League team. According to the JFF, Cephas is out due to flight challenges, Brown due to injury, and Mariappa due to personal reasons.
