Canada's men's national soccer team coach Jesse Marsch has decided to keep injured defender Moïse Bombito on the World Cup roster, as announced on June 11, 2026. Bombito, who sustained an injury during training, will remain with the squad for the upcoming tournament.
Coach's Decision
Marsch emphasized Bombito's importance to the team, stating that his presence, even if not fully fit, provides valuable leadership and defensive stability. The coaching staff will monitor his recovery closely.
Team Preparations
The Canadian team is currently training in Toronto ahead of the World Cup. Bombito participated in limited drills but is expected to be available for selection later in the tournament if his condition improves.
Canada's World Cup campaign begins with a match against South Africa. The squad is aiming to advance past the group stage for the first time in history.
