[edit] Club career

A stocky midfielder, Kelly was once regarded one of the brightest Jamaican talents. He played at the 1999 FIFA U-17 World Championship[2] and caught the eye of French giants Paris St Germain. He also played in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship[3] . However, he never made the grade at PSG and was loaned out to Belgian side Mons before returning to Jamaica. He picked up a severe injury while playing for Trinidadian outfit CL Financial San Juan Jabloteh in November 2005 and after almost two years in the wilderness with a broken foot, Kelly returned to Jamaican football with Harbourview in summer 2007.

[edit] International career

Kelly made his senior debut for Jamaica in a November 2001 World Cup qualifying match against Costa Rica. He has collected 10 caps since, his last international match being the February 2005 CONCACAF Gold Cup qualifying game against Barbados.
