It is a surprise which is why i thought it could be fun to speculate. I was not expecting to hear that the player was going to play for Canada. When is the list going to be released?

Dominic94 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 All signs point to Akinola unless there’s some other 2000 born who’s not on the list and good. has he played for Canada before ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, i believe Jordan is from Ottawa so if he knows the kid is probably from Ottawa. Maybe that kid who went back to England 5 or 6 years ago with his grandpa to sign for Man Utd.?

OK, for fun I'm going to take this a different way from what everyone else has. I think it's a surprise, and he wasn't expected to play for Canada, not because he is a dual national that is good enough for a better soccer nation, but because he is just flat out not good enough to play for Canada. So I'm thinking it's some random teenager we haven't heard of before. Although he said the guy wasn't 100% unknown, so that screws things up. Darn. Um, maybe someone known for something that isn't soccer? An actor? Hockey player? Son of a celebrity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic94 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I’m hoping it’s a good prospect/player at the very least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be Doughty, he will be busy playing for Team Cascadia at the ConIFA World Cup! Callum Ferguson is on that squad as well. They kick off with a game against the Manx on May 31st. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_official_soccer_team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kid came to Canada when he was 4 or 5 and was scoring loads of goals in Ottawa youth league and went back to England with his grandpa. Pretty sure he was a 2000. Davis or something? Maybe i'm way off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpg_29 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I'm getting the impression that this "surprise" is very "inside youth soccer"....to the point where 99% of people wouldn't even who it is outside of niche youth soccer circles. How closely do you have to be following eastern european/canadian youth prospects to even know about this player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toje Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 He does not play in Eastern Europe or North America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fussball_eh Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Both Toje and Jordan are part of the Canucks Abroad team. Don't think it's wise to conclude that it's necessarily an Ottawa-based player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Diego Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I quickly looked through the Canadians Abroad spreadsheet (which is not necessarily complete) and searched for those born in 2000, and the only player that makes sense taking into consideration that: 1. The player is not in Eastern Europe; and 2. The player is not an unknown seems to be Cammy Palmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Diego Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Ok, so we have: 1. The player is not born in 97, 98, or 99; 2. Does not play in Eastern Europe or North America; 3. Is not on Zem's short list; 4. Is on the Canucks Abroad spreadsheet; 5. Is not Cammy Palmer; and 5. Is not an unknown. There can't really be that many candidates left.
