Jordaan Kyle Brown (born March 13, 1992) is an English football player. He currently plays for Hayes & Yeading United.
At club level, he has played in three countries: in England for AFC Wimbledon and Staines Town; in Finland for VPS; and in Norway for Flekkerøy.
Club career
AFC Wimbledon
Jordaan Brown signed for English club AFC Wimbledon in 2010 and didn't play any games. After one season, in 2012, he left Wimbledon on a free transfer to Conference South club Staines Town.
Staines Town
2012-13
After signing for Staines Town, Brown became a fan favorite, and in his first season played 33 games, scored one goal, and was booked zero times. In January that season, he was rumored to be on the books of an unknown League 1 team, but obviously didn't make the move as he played the day after the window closed in a 1-0 win over Bath City.
2013-14
FA Cup
Jordaan Brown had a memorable year in 2013-14 at Staines. Staines made a run in the FA Cup by qualifying for the first round proper. In the third round qualifying, Staines took on Sittingbourne. The swans won 4-1, Jordaan Brown setting up the second. They drew Poole 0-0 in the first leg, but away, beat them 1-0 in the second round. Though they lost to Brentford 5-0 in the first round proper, but the run is remembered in Staines' history.
Conference South
That year, Staines finished 8th, narrowly missing the play-off spot. Brown was however injured earlier in the season. He scored once and played 38 games. He was only booked once that year, before being sighted by top division Finnish team VPS.
VPS
UEFA Europa League
In 2014, he signed a contract with Finnish club VPS. When asked why he left Staines, he said simply "I wanted to get a chance to play in Europe," and on his debut he got his wish; against Swedish club Brommapojkarna, played in the Europa League and not only played, but starred with an incredible run down the wing, and a fabulous cross for Seabrook to finish off. VPS won the match 2-1, and although they lost in the second leg, this was a great moment for Brown. He featured in a Copa 90 video on VPS but was injured at the time and didn't play as VPS tied 0-0 with TPS. On the interview Jordaan said his current goal was to play for Jamaica.
Flekkerøy
In February 2015 he signed for Flekkerøy in the Norwegian Second Division for a small fee.[1] Early in 2016 he returned to UK, whereby he signed for Hayes & Yeading United.
International career
Jordaan Brown has made no International Caps yet. He is eligible to play not only for Jamaica, but also for England, his birthplace. In 2013, he said "If the opportunity comes across he'd consider playing for Jamaica."
