Description
Derrick Etienne Jr., Toronto FC’s dynamic forward and Haiti’s first World Cup player in 52 years, is set to lead his nation’s historic run in the expanded 2026 tournament. One of just three MLS stars on Haiti’s roster—joining Danley Jean Jacques and Louicius Deedson—Etienne brings 11 MLS seasons, 47 caps, and 8 goals to the squad, having helped secure Haiti’s return to the global stage after a 52-year absence. Facing Scotland, Brazil, and Morocco in Group C, Haiti’s underdog charge begins June 11th across U.S., Mexico, and Canada’s co-hosted tournament, where Etienne Jr. aims to ignite a nation’s dream on the world’s biggest stage.
