Kordell Devone Samuel (born 28 February 1985) is a Trinidadian former professional footballer who played as a striker or winger.

Career

[edit]

Kordell Samuel was born in Trinidad and Tobago.[1] He started his career in the TT Pro League at a young age playing for clubs such as Caledonia AIA, North East Stars, and Joe Public

In 2012–2013, Samuel signed with PDRM FA in the Malaysia Premier League, and later on transferred to Nakhon Pathom United for the 2013–14 season in the Thai Division 1 League.

On 17 January 2015, Samuel signed a one–year contract with Salvadoran Primera División side Pasaquina. He debuted with C.D. Pasaquina on 24 January 2015, playing 90 minutes in a 0–0 against FAS at Estadio Oscar Quiteño. He scored his first goal in Pasaquina's jersey in a 1–0 win over Atlético Marte on 18 February 2015 in Pasaquina.

After his first Clausura season in El Salvador, Samuel transferred to Chalatenango. He scored his first goal for Chalatenango in a 2–1 home win at the 93rd minute vs UES on 19 September 2015.

Style of play

[edit]

Samuel is generally deployed as a forward, more often on the wing, and takes a more attacking role than a typical midfielder. He possesses good ball control and dribbling which, coupled with short, fast bursts of pace, lead him to be considered a very direct player. Playing from the left allows him to cut in onto his favored right foot to shoot. In a 4–4–2 formation, Samuel can take on a more central role.
