Richards uploaded an adorable photo of himself and his new born on his Instagram page on Monday, July 22, having announced the news a day prior in a joint point with his girlfriend that was simply captioned: “20/7/24” - the day their child was born.
Richard’s announcement comes 3 months after he and his girlfriend revealed they were expecting their first child.
The 18-year-old football uploaded a photo of himself and his girlfriend holding up a blue jersey named ‘Daddy’ with the number ‘44’ on it during the gender reveal party of their baby.
Richards reportedly signed a pre-contract deal with Chelsea in March 2023, the same month where he announced he was expecting his first child.
Later in June, it was announced that Richards would join the club after his 18th birthday.
The move was officially completed on January 12, 2024 after Dujuan turned 18 in November last year.
In February this year, Richards debuted for Chelsea u18s in an FA Youth Cup tie.
In March 2023, Richards was called up to the Jamaican senior team for a friendly game against Trinidad and Tobago, with manager Heimir Hallgrímsson stating that he was "ready" to represent the nation, despite his young age.
Richards made his debut in the match on March 12.
In June 2023, Richards was named to the final squad for the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
In Jamaica's second match of the tournament against Trinidad and Tobago on June 28, he scored his first goal, netting the final tally in a 4-1 victory.
