Stephen “Kiki” Ramos

Stephen “Kiki” Ramos, a 17-year-old Haitian-born winger for Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield's youth squad, recently made his historic debut for the Argentina U-17 national team in a 2-1 friendly victory over Ecuador. This makes him the first Haitian-born player to represent an Argentine national football team at any level. Ramos, who was adopted by an Argentine family after the 2010 Haiti earthquake, has scored 12 goals for Vélez Sarsfield's youth team in 2026 and is known for his quick feet, explosive strength, and direct attacking style. He played for 7 minutes in his debut match and is considered a promising talent, with comparisons to players like Vinícius Júnior.
