Canadian Premier League coaches open up about roster construction

With just about six months to go until the Canadian Premier League’s intended kickoff in April 2019, it seems that talk about roster construction is starting to heat up. A Kurt Larson article published on the league’s website today featured some very interesting quotes about what the seven CPL coaches have been looking for in assembling squads — both in marquee signings and the Open Trials that have been touring the country the past few weeks.

The league has indicated that major announcements are coming; the kit deal with Macron means we’re on our way to seeing jersey reveals, and the season ticket information released by some clubs suggests we might be close to learning how the inaugural CPL season will be structured.
