International career

[edit]

Born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Duverguer is of Haitian descent. He was called up for an evaluation for the Canada men's national under-17 soccer team in October 2016.[1] He was called up to the Haiti national under-20 football team for the 2017 CONCACAF U-20 Championship at the age of sixteen, appearing for all three of the teams' appearances in the tournament.[2][3][4] He was also called up to the Haiti national under-17 football team for the 2017 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, but didn't make any appearances for the team in the tournament.[5]

Duverguer made his debut for the senior Haiti national team in a 1–0 friendly win over the United Arab Emirates on 10 November 2017, at the age of seventeen.[6]

In a June 2021 match against Canada, during CONCACAF World Cup qualifying, he mis-controlled a back pass and made two mis-kick attempts at a clearance as the ball rolled into the net for an own goal.[7] The clip of the own goal went viral with some calling it one of the worst own goals ever seen.[8]
