First Steps with the USMNT: Learn more about Jordan Siebatcheu and Bryan Reynolds - U.S. Soccer

Jordan Siebatcheu was added to the USMNT roster along with midfielder Christian Cappis on March 19.

 

Eligible to represent the United States, France and Cameroon, the target striker is on loan to BSC Young Boys (Swiss Super League) from Rennes (French Ligue 1). He’s been on fine form this season, scoring nine goals in 23 league appearances and 12 goals across all competitions.

He caught fire in the Europa League, scoring three times as Young Boys surprised Bayer Leverkusen, 6-3, in aggregate goals in the Round of 32 in February. He registered a brace, scoring the game-winner in the 89th minute in a 4-3 upset win in the first leg on Feb 18. Young Boys was eliminated by Ajax in the Round of 16, on the short end of a 5-0 aggregate after a 2-0 loss on March 18.

 

The forward was born to Cameroonian parents in Washington, D.C. on April 26, 1996, before he and his family moved to France when he was two. In June 2017, he began representing the France Under-21 squad, scoring in his debut against Albania. Because he only appeared in friendlies, Siebatcheu does not require a “Change of Association” request in order to represent the United States.

 

Now 24, Siebatcheu joined Stade de Reims club when he was seven. He made his Ligue 1 debut in the 67th minute in a 1-0 loss at Toulouse on Jan. 31, 2015. He tallied his first league goal in his second appearance, the game-winner as a second-half substitute in a 2-1 comeback win at Bordeaux on Aug. 9, 2015.

After signing a three-year contract with Reims in September 2015, Siebatcheu started to find the back of the net, helping Reims achieve promotion to Ligue 1 during the 2017-18 season by accruing 17 goals and seven assists in 35 matches. He struck for a hat-trick in a 5-1 triumph at Valenciennes on Dec. 1, 2017. He finished with three-year career with Reims, connecting for 20 goals in 69 league appearances before agreeing to a contract with Rennes (Ligue 1).

 

The 6-3, 185-lb. striker made his European debut in the Europa League group stage on Sept. 20, 2018 and scored his first goal in the competition in a 2-1 loss to Dynamo Kyiv on Nov. 8, 2018.

 

Siebatcheu, who bagged his first Ligue 1 brace in a 4-0 win against Nimes on Dec. 22, 2018, scored three times in 29 league games for Rennes through two seasons. He was loaned to Young Boys on Sept. 13, 2020, and since has regained his scoring touch with his 12 goals across all competitions placing him second on the team in scoring.
