Manjrekar James

Manjrekar James[2] (born August 5, 1993) is a professional soccer player who plays as a centre-back for Liga FPD club Alajuelense.

Born in Dominica, he became a Canadian citizen during his youth and earned 17 caps with the national team, appearing at the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup.

[5] Although he had a successful trial at the club, James was not signed because of strict visa laws for foreign players in Spain.

James made his professional debut March 18, 2014, in a Ligakupa, the Hungarian league cup, match against Videoton FC.

James made his league debut for Pécsi on October 18, 2014, coming on as a late substitute for Roland Frőhlich and playing two minutes in a 2–0 defeat to Ferencvárosi.

[13] James made his debut for Fredericia on July 29 against Næstved,[14] and scored his first goal for the club on August 5 against Roskilde.

Having featured in nine first team games in his first two years with the club, in March 2020 James signed a contract extension with Midtjylland until December 2023.

This move reunited James with manager Bobby Smyrniotis who had previously coached him as a youth at Sigma FC.

In the tournament, James made one appearance, a 4–2 defeat to the United States in which he received a red card ejection.
