Club career



Early career


Kennedy moved to Germany as an 18-year-old, signing with SBC Traunstein in 2015, and later with FC Amberg in 2016.[1] Kennedy would move to Austria in June 2017, joining Austrian Regionalliga West club SV Grödig.[2] In July 2018, he signed with Austria Klagenfurt.[3]


Jahn Regensburg


In August 2020, Kennedy joined 2. Bundesliga side Jahn Regensburg on a three-year contract.[4] Kennedy's performances in his first season impressed, particularly in the 2020–21 DFB-Pokal where Regensburg knocked out Bundesliga side 1. FC Köln to advance to the quarter-finals.[5]


International career


While with Regensburg, Kennedy would begin to get interest in representing Canada internationally.[6] On May 26, 2021, Jahn Regensburg confirmed Kennedy had been called up to Canada for their upcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification matches.[7] He made his debut for Canada on June 8 in the match against Suriname, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 victory.[8] On June 18, Kennedy was named to the 60-man preliminary squad for the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[9] On July 1, he was named to the final squad.[10] On July 10, he was replaced in the squad by Frank Sturing due to medical reasons.[11]

In late October 2022, Kennedy suffered a shoulder injury in a league match that his coach Mersad Selimbegovic confirmed would sideline him for "a few months," ruling him out of consideration for the 2022 FIFA World Cup squad.[12]
