Omar Daley (born April 25, 1981 in Kingston, Jamaica) is a Jamaican footballer, who currently plays midfield for Bradford City
He joined Charleston Battery from Portmore United of the Jamaican Premier League. Daley joined Portmore in 2005 after previously playing for Reading F.C. and Preston North End of the English second division.
Daley appeared for the Jamaican U-20's in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship in Argentina and is a current member of the Jamaican national team; he has been capped more than 50 times and scored four international goals.
On the 16th January 2007, Omar Daley returned to ply his footballing trade in England when he signed for Bradford City to link up with his fellow Jamaican internationals Donovan Ricketts and Jermaine Johnson. Omar has become the fourth Reggae Boy to join Bradford City over the past few seasons, as central defender Damion Stewart also signed on loan for the 2005-2006 season before joining Queens Park Rangers. Other Jamaican internationals which have set the world alight at Valley Parade are such legends as Darren Moore and Jamie Lawrence.
