Kemar Roofe (born 6 January 1993) is a professional footballer who most recently played as a forward for Scottish Premiership club Rangers. Born in England, he represents the Jamaican national team. He is currently a free agent.
Roofe was eligible to represent the England and Jamaica national sides, the latter because of his Jamaican heritage.
In June 2019, Roofe received an invitation to play for the Jamaica national side for the CONCACAF Gold Cup in July 2019.
In March 2021, Jamaica again approached Roofe for inclusion in the team's squad for the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. This time Roofe expressed his interest, stating "who wouldn't want to go to a World Cup?" and revealing he was already in the process of applying for a Jamaican passport in order to play for the nation. He debuted with Jamaica in a 3–0 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification loss to Panama on 5 September 2021. The next month on October 13 Roofe scored his first goal for Jamaica, netting the opener against Honduras in an eventual 2–0 victory.
Roofe is the cousin of R&B & pop singer Jorja Smith. He also helps his brother, Alex, design and make garments for their clothing range, Custom Rare.
