Club career

[edit]

Jamaica

[edit]

Bryan began his professional career in the KSAFA Super League in 2005 with Rae Town.[1] His stint with Rae Town lasted for three months as he was transferred to Police Nationals during the winter transfer window.[1] In the summer of 2006, he played in the Jamaican top-tier league by signing with Harbour View.[2] In his debut season in the national league, he finished second in the scoring charts with 17 goals and assisted the club in securing the championship.[3][4]

He re-signed with Harbour View the following season and contributed a goal in the quarterfinal match of the 2007 CFU Club Championship tournament against Portmore United.[5] He also played in the final match of the Caribbean tournament where Harbour View defeated Joe Public for the championship.[6] In his third season with Harbour View, he appeared in the opening round of the 2008–09 CONCACAF Champions League where they were defeated by Club Universidad Nacional.[7][8]

In April 2009, he played abroad in Norway's 1. divisjon on a loan deal to Notodden FK.[9] After a season in Scandinavia, he returned to the Jamaican top tier to resume play with Harbour View for the 2009-10 season.[10][11] Throughout the season he helped the Kingston-based club secure another league title.[12] He returned for his fifth season with the club the following year.[13] Though he had a shortened season in Jamaica, he returned to finish the 2010-11 campaign once his loan deal ended around November 2011.[14]

Vietnam

[edit]

His fifth season with Harbour View was shortened as he was loaned out abroad to the Vietnamese's V.League 1 for Sông Lam Nghệ An.[15][16] The club went on to claim the league title.[17][18][19] He also played in the 2011 AFC Cup where he recorded 3 goals in 3 appearances.[20] In May 2011, Bryan broke his fibula while playing for Sông Lam Nghệ An.[21] After failing to come to terms with Song Lam Nghe An he departed after the conclusion of the season.[22]

He returned to Vietnam for the 2012 season where he secured a deal with Vicem Hai Phong.[23] This tenure with Hai Phong only lasted a single season as he departed from the club the following year.[24] Bryan would return to his former team Sông Lam Nghệ An in 2013.[25] He would appear in 22 matches and record 8 goals throughout the season.[7] For the 2014 season, he signed with Vissai Ninh Bình.[26] During his stint with Vissai Ninh Binh, he had another run in the Asian continental tournament.[27]

In May 2014, Bryan left Vissai Ninh Bình for V.League 2 side Hanoi after the club was dissolved due to a match-fixing scandal.[28] After a five-year run in Asia, he returned to his former club Harbour View for the 2015-16 season.[29] He received another attempt in early 2016 to return to the Vietnamese top tier after securing a trial run with Dong Thap.[30][31]

Canada

[edit]

In 2017, he played in the Canadian Soccer League with York Region Shooters.[32][33] Bryan assisted the Vaughan-based team in securing a postseason berth by finishing third in the First Division.[34] In the second round of the playoffs, he contributed a goal against the Serbian White Eagles which advanced the club to the CSL Championship.[33][35] York Region would successfully win the championship title after defeating Scarborough SC in a penalty shootout.[36]

Bryan returned to the Canadian circuit the following season to play with Scarborough after York Region transferred several of their players to the eastern Toronto side.[37][38][39] He helped Scarborough secure a playoff berth and scored a goal in the playoff semifinal match against FC Ukraine United.[40] He would participate in the championship final where Scarborough was defeated in a penalty shootout by FC Vorkuta.[41][42] Bryan returned to Scarborough for his sophomore season in 2019.[43] He assisted the club in securing a postseason berth by finishing second in the top division.[44] He would play in his third championship final where Scarborough would successfully defeat Ukraine United for the title.[45][46]

In 2020, he re-signed with Scarborough and assisted in securing the First Division title.[47][48] He returned to sign with Scarborough for his fifth season in 2022.[49]

International career

[edit]

Bryan was named to the Jamaican Olympic Team by head coach Wendell Downswell to participate in the 2007 Lunar New Year Cup.[50]

He was called up to the senior national team to face Switzerland in a friendly match in 2007.[51] He officially made his international debut on 22 March 2007, coming on as a substitute in the match against Switzerland.[52][53] Bryan was originally selected to represent the national team in the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup but withdrew after sustaining a leg injury while playing with Sông Lam Nghệ An.[1][54]

He recorded his first international goal on 11 August 2010, against Trinidad and Tobago.[55] Bryan returned to the national program in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification match on 7 September 2012, against the United States.[56] He also played in the return match against the United States on 11 September 2012.[57] In total, he made 10 appearances and recorded 1 goal on the international level.[53]
