Jonathan Ricardo Glenn (born 27 August 1987) is a Trinidad and Tobago football coach and former player. He played college football for Saint Leo University in the United States before going on a decade long professional career. At international level, he made six appearances for the Trinidad and Tobago national team scoring once.

Early life

Glenn was raised in Maloney Gardens, Tunapuna–Piarco, Trinidad. He attended St. Anthony's College in Diego Martin before moving to the United States to play at Saint Leo University in Florida, where he studied psychology and marketing.[1]

Playing career

College

In his freshman season at Saint Leo in 2007, Glenn scored 14 goals in 13 matches, ranking fourth in

CoSIDA Academic All-District Team.[1] In total, he scored 41 goals across 57 matches in his college career, which was then fifth highest in Saint Leo history.[7]

Club

Glenn began his club career while still at Saint Leo in 2008 with the

Jacksonville United FC of the National Premier Soccer League, where he was named to the All-Conference team in the Sunshine Conference in 2012.[1]

In February 2014, Glenn moved to Iceland, when he signed for

Úrvalsdeild.[7] He had a successful first season in Iceland, scoring 12 goals in 20 matches, second-most in the league.[10] He received ÍBV's Golden Boot, along with the club's Player of the Year award.[10][11]

On 28 July 2017, Glenn moved to North Carolina FC alongside teammate Danny Barrow in exchange for Brian Shriver who went to Jacksonville Armada.[12]

In November 2022, he retired from professional football.[13]

After his first season with ÍBV, Glenn was named to the Trinidad and Tobago national team for the 2014 Caribbean Cup. He appeared in two matches in the tournament, coming on as a substitute against Curaçao[14] and Cuba.[15] The Soca Warriors finished runners-up to Jamaica in the tournament.[16]

Managerial career

In November 2021, Glenn was hired as the manager of ÍBV women's football team.[17] Despite the team finishing 6th and playing well above expectations, with Glenn being named the best coach of the first half of the season by Fótbolti.net,[18] he was sacked following the season.[19]
