A roster unveiling shows Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies, sidelined from international play since November, will return to action with Canada for June's games in the international window.

Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies, sidelined from international play since November, returns to action with Canada for June games against Iran, Curacao and Honduras.

Edwards is tied for the MLS lead with three game-winning assists this season and has five assists in total. Canada, ranked 38th in the world, opens the June FIFA window with a friendly against No. 21 Iran on June 5 at B.C. Place Stadium before kicking off its CONCACAF Nations League campaign four days later against No. 79 Curacao at the same venue. The Canadians then continue Nations League play against No. 82 Honduras in San Pedro Sula on June 13.

"There isn't a minute that can be wasted in this moment. Our group of players that competed across 20 matches as part of FIFA World Cup qualifiers created a foundation of trust, belief, and confidence in each other, so bringing them together and continuing to find that next level will be key to our success in Qatar."

"There are some areas in the team that we would like to strengthen prior to Qatar,'' said Herdman."We are looking to assess specific profiles of players that can contribute to our tactical approach against Tier 1 opponents.'' The roster features 10 MLS players including Alistair Johnston and Kamal Miller from CF Montreal, Lucas Cavallini from the Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto's Osorio.
