Bailey Cadamarteri will be hoping to fire Jamaica to the World Cup during this international break.

Sheffield Wednesday striker Bailey Cadamarteri has admitted it would be “surreal” to represent Jamaica at next summer’s World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada.

With just two qualifiers remaining, Jamaica occupy top spot in their qualifying group, meaning they are in pole position to reach their first World Cup in almost 30 years.

Steve McClaren’s side currently sit top of Group B after winning three and losing one of their opening four qualifiers. Their tally of nine points means they are currently one point ahead of second-placed Curaçao.

Jamaica, who have included Cadamarteri in their squad for their final two qualifiers, face Trinidad and Tobago away from home at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on November 14 before locking horns with Curaçao in their final qualifier on November 19.

The Reggae Boyz know two wins, regardless of what happens elsewhere, will see them qualify for their first World Cup since 1998, while there is also a chance one win could be enough to see them automatically qualify as group winners.

With a ticket to the World Cup now within touching distance, Cadamarteri, who qualifies to represent Jamaica through his grandparents despite playing for England at youth level, is keen to finish the job.

Cadamarteri dreaming of securing World Cup spot

"That [qualifying for the World Cup] was always in the back of my mind when I thought about switching to Jamaica," Cadamarteri told The Star. "I made the switch and we have got the last round of qualifiers coming up, so I am looking forward to those and hopefully qualifying for the World Cup.

"I think it will be a surreal feeling. I probably won't realise it until I am actually on the plane, but I am just focusing on the qualifiers for now."

Despite starting ten of the Owls’ opening 15 Championship matches this season, Cadamarteri has scored just one goal, scoring Wednesday’s equaliser in their 2-2 draw against Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground back in August. However, the youngster accepts it was always going to be a challenge to rack up the goals this term because of the situation the Owls find themselves in.

"I am my own harshest critic," Cadamarteri added. "But at the same time, we all knew this season was going to be an uphill struggle.

"To have got one goal is okay, but I am hoping to more chances away."
