Bermudian football legend Reggie Lambe, the island’s most capped player, has announced his retirement from international football, marking the close of Bermuda’s World Cup 26 qualifying campaign.
Lambe’s distinguished career began at the Dandy Town Hornets before taking him professional in the UK with Ipswich Town and across the Atlantic, including a two-season spell at Toronto FC. Since making his national team debut at the age of 16 against St. Kitts and Nevis in 2007, Lambe has been an ever-present figure, holding Bermuda’s all-time appearance record and becoming the first player to reach 50 caps.
Senior Men’s team Coach Michael Findlay praised the retiring star, stating Lambe “joins a long list of Bermudian football legends who have represented their country… with honour and respect.” Findlay specifically applauded Lambe’s “lifelong commitment to Bermuda, its football, and its people.”
BFA President Mark Wade highlighted Lambe’s role in the team’s greatest moments, including the “historic win in the Dominican Republic that secured our Gold Cup berth in 2019.” Wade encouraged all fans to attend the team’s last home match versus Curacao on Thursday, November 13th, at the National Sports Centre to give Lambe the “farewell that he deserves.”
