Head coach Jose Francisco Molina has named his squad for Honduras’ international friendlies against the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.
Honduras will first take on the UAE in Abu Dhabi on Friday, before concluding the window against Kuwait in Kuwait City on Tuesday, November 17.
Liverpool striker Keyrol Figueroa, who is currently on loan at Port Vale, has been included in the squad. Figueroa’s impressive start to life on loan continued last Saturday as he scored for the third consecutive game.
The Liverpool academy forward netted and provided an assist in an hour-long appearance during the Valiants’ 4-2 win over Scunthorpe United in the first round of the Emirates FA Cup.
That followed goals in his previous two outings against Rochdale in League Two and Manchester City U21s in the Vertu Trophy.
The 20-year-old has registered four goals and one assist in seven appearances in all competitions for Port Vale since joining on transfer deadline day, averaging a goal contribution every 57 minutes.
Figueroa will now turn his attention to international football as he prepares to represent Honduras in their upcoming friendlies against the UAE and Kuwait.
He signed his first professional contract with Liverpool in May 2024. The son of former Wigan Athletic defender Maynor Figueroa, the pacy forward joined the Academy at U14 level. He progressed through Liverpool’s youth ranks, stepping up from the U18s to the U21s during the 2024/25 season.
Figueroa made an impressive start to the 2025/26 campaign, scoring a hat-trick against Everton in Premier League 2. Days later, he was included in the senior team’s matchday squad for their Carabao Cup tie against Crystal Palace at Anfield.
He was nominated for Premier League 2 Player of the Month in January 2026 and finished the campaign with 12 goals in 15 league appearances.
Having represented the USA up to U20 level, Figueroa switched his international allegiance to Honduras, his country of birth, in May 2026. He scored his first senior international goal in September, netting the winner in Honduras’ 1-0 away victory over Jamaica.
