Alphonso Davies included in Canada World Cup training squad

Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies is named in Canada’s 32-player training camp roster for the FIFA World Cup. The squad was announced ahead of the tournament preparation.

Davies, Canada’s captain, remains included despite recent injury concerns. His inclusion reflects Canada Soccer’s confidence in his fitness recovery.

The training camp roster includes players from European clubs and domestic leagues. The group will prepare for the World Cup under head coach John Herdman.

Canada’s World Cup campaign begins with matches against Group A opponents. The team will finalize its 26-player squad from this training group.

Hereditary captain duties will temporarily shift during Davies’ fitness evaluation. Atletico Madrid midfielder Alistair Johnston is expected to lead the defense in Davies’ absence.

Canada Soccer targets a top-four finish in the World Cup. The training camp runs through late June.
