Career

Club

Peltier attended St. Anthony's College in Trinidad playing on his school's football team as the striker position.[1] and had trials with Club Brugge, Arsenal, Millwall and Cardiff City.[2] In 2007, English Premiership club Portsmouth offered Peltier a four-year contract after a successful trial, but could not conclude the deal due to his failure to attain a work permit.[3] In April 2011 he signed with AS Trenčín and made his debut on 10 April 2011.[4] On 19 June 2012, Slovan Bratislava confirmed the signing of Peltier from AS Trenčín on a four-year contract.[5]

On 7 February 2016, Peltier signed for Irtysh Pavlodar of the Kazakhstan Premier League.[6] Little over a week later, Peltier and Irtysh Pavlodar agreed to cancel his contract by mutual consent due to family circumstances.[7]

On 30 July 2018, Peltier re-joined Alashkert,[8] but left the club 6-weeks later to join Saudi second tier club Al-Mujazzal.[9]

International

He also represented Trinidad and Tobago at the Under 17, Under 20 levels and played for Scorpion United scoring 6 goals.[10] Peltier made his international debut for the Trinidad and Tobago national football team on 26 January 2008 against Puerto Rico coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute. Peltier scored his first international hat-trick at the Hasley Crawford Stadium in October 2011 during a World Cup qualifier.

He announced his international retirement on June 7, 2021.[11]

Lester's brother, Johan, is also a professional footballer,[12] currently playing for Junior Sevan.
