In total, there are 14 players on the 28-man squad that play for first teams in MLS. Regular call-ups Cyle Larin (Orlando City) and David Edgar (Vancouver Whitecaps) missed out due to injury.
"We want to give our players an early advantage heading into their preseasons, but also give our staff an opportunity to observe, evaluate, and educate a larger group of players," said Canada interim head coach Michael Findlay in a statement released by the CSA. "This project also provides an internal competition within the larger group as only 18 will be selected for travel to the match."
