CHICAGO (Aug. 29, 2024) - Chicago Fire FC II today announced that winger Omari Glasgow was called in to represent the Guyana Men’s National Team in the opening matchdays of the CONCACAF Nations League from Sept. 5-9, 2024. Glasgow and Guyana will be opening their competition with a pair of matches against Suriname and Martinique.

The Golden Jaguars will begin their competition with an opening contest against Suriname on Thursday, Sept. 5 at 3 p.m. CT. The match will take place at the Synthetic Track and Field Facility in Leonora, Guyana. Four days later, Guyana will face Martinique on Monday, Sept. 9 at the Pierre-Aliker Municipal Stadium in Fort-du-France, Martinique. Kickoff for that contest is scheduled for 3 p.m. CT.

Glasgow, 20, has been a constant fixture for the Golden Jaguars since his debut for the national team in 2019. Currently at 16 all-time goals with Guyana, Glasgow needs two more goals to tie Guyanese legend Nigel Codrington for the most goals in national team history.

At the Club level, Glasgow has recorded three goals and two assists in 17 appearances (17 starts) this season for Chicago Fire FC II. With his appearance against NYCFC II on July 14, Glasgow became the second player in Chicago Fire FC II history to record 50 appearances with Chicago’s MLS NEXT Pro side.

Earlier this season, Glasgow made his MLS debut on May 4 against the New England Revolution at Soldier Field. With his appearance off the bench, Glasgow became the first MLS NEXT Pro-contracted player to appear in a First Team contest with the Chicago Fire.
