This is International Clearance - the podcast about British born/raised footballers and coaches plying their trade abroad for club or country. This week we focus on the highlights of the international break, and what we like to call the Diaspora Duty - those from the UK that represent their countries of their family heritage.World Cup and play-off qualification spots were at stake in the last week, and it was mixed fortunes for our contingent around the world . While DR Congo defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Aaron Wan-Bissaka were delighted to make March's intercontinental play-off showdown, the Jamaican national team were far less enthused - so much so that manager Steve McClaren immediately resigned after his side's draw with Curacao, who instead qualified automatically for 2026.Elsewhere, Bangladesh's international break included a historic win over their great rivals and a Hamza Choudhury bicycle kick to rival Scott McTominay; Somalia ended the longest winless run in international football with help from a former Hashtag United player, while new Sweden boss Graham Potter is on a winless run of his own after his first two games in charge. There's updates on those representing Canada, Chile, Nigeria, Hungary and more, including a hat-trick hero for the British Virgin Islands!Follow the show and get in touch @intlclearance on socialsHosts @ohjoewalker and @isthatscully

The international break is upon us, and there are some massive games for the British born/raised players representing the likes of Jamaica, Nigeria and Iraq as they seek a chance at World Cup glory. We discuss a few new call-ups, including Brentford left back Rico Henry's addition to the Reggae Boyz squad as they hope to lift spirits after Hurricane Melissa, and respond to Alex Iwobi's revealing hotel Snaps as the Nigerian FA face a player revolt in Morocco.We also look back on the week in club football for our contingent abroad - Marcus Rashford now leads in assists across Europe's top 5 leagues, there's another controversy for Ademola Lookman at Atalanta, and an incredible solo effort from Londoner Dan Agyei stuns the Turkish champions. Plus, a moment to remember for former Accrington defender Ross Sykes in the Champions League...Follow the show @intlclearanceHosts @isthatscully @ohjoewalker
