Ayo Akinola 1 of 7 Toronto FC players named to Canada’s Men’s National Team camp roster

TORONTO, Canada—As Waking the Red’s Mitchell Tierney reported last week, the Canadian men’s national team will indeed be returning to action in January as part of a preparatory camp ahead of FIFA World Cup™ Qualifiers, which are scheduled to begin in March 2021.

The January camp, which won’t be cap-tying, will feature two training scrimmages as well as a Canada intra-squad scrimmage, meaning it doesn’t sound like there will be games played against another nation. There hasn’t been a date confirmed for the January 2021 camp, but Waking the Red did report last week that Canada Soccer was eyeing potential dates between January 9 and 24.
