Canada Soccer has announced the Men's U-17 National Team squad that will compete at the UEFA Friendship Cup 2026, taking place from 24 September to 3 October at the Centre sportif de Colovray in Nyon, Switzerland. ​

Canada has been drawn into Group B alongside Brazil, Côte d'Ivoire and Spain, opening the tournament against Brazil on 24 September before facing Côte d'Ivoire on 27 September and Spain on 30 September, with placement matches on 3 October determined by final group standings.

Now in its third edition, the UEFA Friendship Cup brings together teams from the 2009-born (and younger) age group from five of the world's six confederations, with this year's field also featuring Korea Republic, Côte d'Ivoire, Egypt, Brazil, Colombia, England and Spain.

“The UEFA Friendship Cup is exactly the kind of experience that accelerates our players’ development: different opponents, different styles, different environment. We're excited to see how this group will perform with the opportunity to play against some high-quality teams.” - Shane Lammie, Men's U-17 National Team Head Coach
