Cory Burke will not be part of Jamaica’s Gold Cup team after being left off the provisional roster for the competition announced by CONCACAF on Monday.
Burke has been unavailable to play for the Philadelphia Union for the last five games and is expected to miss at least three months because of work-visa issues.
Few details have emerged since Sporting Director Ernst Tanner made the visa situation public earlier this month. Undisclosed personal reasons were cited as the the reason his visa was canceled but Tanner said it was not the result of anything criminal.
