The Club is delighted to announce that centre-back Luc De Fougerolles has received his first senior call-up for Canada.
The 17-year-old was born in London but has a Canadian father, which makes him eligible to represent them at international level.
Luc consistently impressed at Under-18s level and, as a result, quickly began starting games for our Under-21s. His excellence on and off the pitch saw him pick up the Scholar of the Year Award, and he soon caught the eye of the fans, leaving his mark during our Premier League Summer Series tour in America.
After finding out he'd been drafted in, he told the Club's official website: "It feels great to be called up to any international age group, but it makes it extra special that it's the senior team, and it will be a great experience for me.
"It’s always been a dream to play internationally at any level, and to achieve it so young is an added bonus which will hopefully allow me to play for a longer period of time and make the most out of the experiences.
"I'm really looking forward to going away and playing with different players, and play styles which should benefit me."
Canada's next game will be against Japan in an international friendly on Friday 13th October.
