Canada began its preparation for the next two u-20 FIFA World Cups. In total, 20 players have been called to a camp, which is being held in Costa Rica.
As with other youth camps lately, the majority of the players come from the three professional academies. Toronto FC leads the way with seven, Vancouver has six and Montreal has three in camp.
Only one player, Luca Gasparotto, is based in Europe. Gasparotto is in the Glasgow Rangers’ system. Two players are with the Erin Mills Eagles (Mississauga, ON) and one is with Edmonton Juventus.
