Club career

Early career

Born in

San Juan Jabloteh. In May 2007 it was announced that English side Portsmouth were close to agreeing a deal for the player.[7] In August 2007, Hyland went on trial with Scottish side Celtic, but a £450,000 bid from the club was turned down.[8] After he left San Juan Jabloteh in May 2008, Portsmouth were once again linked with signing Hyland.[9] However, the club's initial application for a work permit was rejected by the Home Office.[10] In September 2008 Portsmouth announced that they were still interested in signing Hyland.[11] Hyland had to wait for a work permit to join Portsmouth, and it was announced that he would move to the club's Belgian feeder club, Zulte Waregem.[12]

Zulte Waregem

Hyland's loan move to Zulte Waregem was made official on

Transfer deadline day, which is 2 February 2009,[13] but his future at Zulte-Waregem became unsure when both clubs decided to stop their partnership in June 2009.[14] A week later it was announced that Hyland was now signed on a permanent basis.[15]

Genk

He signed permanently for

Westerlo

On 12 June 2015, it was announced that

Westerlo had signed the player on a one-year contract.[19]

Saudi Arabia

Hyland moved to the Middle East and signed with Saudi club Al Faisaly in June 2017. He scored his first goal on 14 October 2017.[20]

In September 2020 he signed for Al-Batin.[21]

International career

Hyland played for the national under-20's at the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[citation needed]

Hyland made his full international debut for Trinidad and Tobago on 26 January 2008 against Puerto Rico,[22] and he scored his first international goal on 7 June 2008 against Jamaica in a friendly match at the Marvin Lee Stadium.[23]
