Stephen Oscar Ramos, widely known as Kiki Ramos, has decided to represent Haiti rather than Argentina at the international level, marking an important milestone in his young football career. The talented winger, who plays for Argentine club Vélez Sarsfield, is expected to join Haiti's Under-17 national team for the 2026 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Qatar.

Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on April 3, 2009, Ramos moved to Argentina as a baby after surviving the devastating earthquake that struck his homeland in 2010. He grew up in Buenos Aires after being adopted by an Argentine family and eventually developed his footballing abilities through Vélez Sarsfield's youth system, where he established himself as a promising attacking prospect.

Ramos had previously represented Argentina at the Under-17 level in friendly matches, but he has now officially committed to Haiti. The Haitian Football Federation has welcomed his decision and confirmed his inclusion in the country's youth setup. His arrival is considered a significant boost for Haiti, which hopes to benefit from his experience and development in Argentine football.

Known for his impressive pace, physical strength and attacking instincts, Ramos is regarded as one of Haiti's exciting young prospects. His progress has also been recognised by Vélez Sarsfield, where he recently signed his first professional contract. Although he has yet to make his senior international debut, his decision to represent Haiti could open an important new chapter in his career.

Haiti will compete in Group D at the 2026 FIFA U-17 World Cup, facing France, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay during the tournament, scheduled to run from November 19 to December 13 in Qatar. Ramos remains eligible to represent Haiti at senior level because his previous appearances for Argentina came in friendly matches, which do not permanently tie a player to a national association. His decision could therefore strengthen Haiti's ambitions both at youth level and in the years ahead.
