Development Squad goalkeeper Chituru Odunze to trial at English Premier League club Leicester City FC

It's been a big past couple of months for the Whitecaps FC Academy.

In December, a U-16 group travelled on tour to Spain, earning a memorable 1-0 win over their Real Madrid Academy counterparts. Last week, former Academy player Alphonso Davies saw his first game action for German Bundesliga side FC Bayern Munich. On Friday, the club appointed Canada Soccer Hall of Famer Nick Dasovic as head coach of the U-23 development squad.

And on Saturday, Whitecaps FC confirmed that goalkeeper Chituru Odunze, who is signed to the U-23 development squad, will begin a two-week trial at English Premier League club Leicester City FC, starting on Monday.
