All four of Canada’s pro-affiliated academies/residencies are represented in the U-20 squad coach Nick Dasovic will bring to the Marbella Cup. The Marbella Cup will be staged in Spain from Oct. 7-16, and features Canada, the Americans, Scotland and Azerbaijan. Toronto FC/TFC Academy has placed three players on the roster, which is the same number produced by the Vancouver Whitecaps/Whitecaps Residency. The Montreal Impact Academy and the FC Edmonton Reserve program each have one player on the roster. There are some notable alumni on the roster as well; Stefan Vukovic, who trialed with the Impact’s developmental program after he led the CSL in scoring in 2011 as a member of TFC Academy, will be in camp as an unaffiliated player. Ex-TFC Academy players Keven Aleman, Dylan Carreiro, Michael Petrasso and Jonathan Lao — who all now play in Europe — are also on the squad. Former Impact youth player Marco Lapenna — who had an unsuccessful trial with FC Edmonton earlier this year — is also on the roster. But it’s clear from this announcement that Samuel Piette, who had spent some time with the men’s senior program, is out of the running for October’s World Cup qualifiers. The Marbella Cup happens in the same week as Canada’s home date to Cuba and its road date to Honduras to close out CONCACAF Group C action. Piette is on Dasovic’s roster — which is a clear sign he won’t be selected by national men’s coach Stephen Hart.
