Bradford City this week signed Thai international goalkeeper Jamie Waite until the end of the season:
"Goalkeeper Jamie Waite [signed] until the end of the season after being on non-contract forms with Blue Square South strugglers St Albans City.
The 21-year-old Thailand-born international has had spells with Rotherham and MK Dons, among other clubs, but has yet to start a league game.
He made history on his debut for the national side aged just 15 years and 354 days when he came on as a second-half substitute in a game against Singapore in Bangkok.
That made him the second youngest player ever to appear in a full international."
(T&A)
His father is British and his mother is Thai.
