Canada’s Men’s U-17 Roster for 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup Qualifiers

Canada looking to qualify for their 9th FIFA U-17 World Cup

Canada Soccer have announced the 21 players who will represent Canada Soccer’s Men’s U-17 National Team in the 2025 Concacaf U-17 Men’s Qualifiers. The eight group winners from the region will qualify for the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup, set to be played in Qatar at the end of the year. ​ 

“While we are proud of the two strong performances and results in our November camp, they don’t guarantee qualification. We understand the challenges ahead and know that success will come through hard work, preparation, and commitment as we face the tough matches to come.” – Mike Vitulano, Men’s U-17 National Team Head Coach and Men’s Regional Excel Director 

CANM17 have been drawn in Group A for the 2025 Concacaf U-17 Men’s Qualifiers alongside Bermuda, Curacao, Anguilla, and Turks and Caicos Islands. The new Qualifiers consist of a single round, in which the participating teams are split into eight groups. Each team will play against each group opponent once, with the eight group winners qualifying for the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup. ​ Matches will be divided across six venues with Bermuda hosting the Group A matches from 7-16 February 2025. ​ 

FIFA announced earlier this year that the FIFA U-17 World Cup™ will be expanded to 48 teams and take place on an annual basis between 2025 and 2029. Qatar have been awarded hosting duties for the men’s premier U-17 tournament. Canada have qualified for four of the last six editions of the FIFA U-17 World Cup™. ​ 

In November of 2024, CANM17 hosted a training camp in Costa Rica, where they took part in a two-game friendly set against Costa Rica and Mexico. Canada impressed defeating Costa Rica 3-0 and Mexico 2-1. 

Canada will play Turks and Caicos Island on 9 February, Anguilla on 11 February, Curacao on 13 February and Bermuda on 16 February.
