Roy Myrie Medrano (born 21 August 1982 in Costa Rica) is a Costa Rican professional football defender
In 2005 he tested with PSV, but after an injury during the testing, he was sent back to Costa Rica. In June 2008, he signed with Gent and stayed there until the summer of 2012.
KAA Gent
Myrie quickly became a player in the first team during the 2008-2009 season Myrie. His excellent dribbling was remarkable. After the winter he injured his knee and had a long period of rehabilitation. He missed the preparation and the first eight games of the season 2009/2010. He made his debut back in the home match against KVC Westerlo. He made the full game and he also did the next games. Shortly after he got injured again and it took three months before he played a match again. In late 2009 he was allowed to play after 80 minutes against SV Roeselare. After the match he was as usual again a player in the basic team. But Myrie was unlucky, in early January 2011 he re-injured his knee and he couldn't play for months once again.
International career
Myrie has made 15 appearances for the senior Costa Rica national football team. His debut was in a friendly match against Ecuador on February 16, 2005.[1] He appeared in all four matches and scored twice as Costa Rica won the UNCAF Nations Cup 2005 tournament.[2]
