Canada's Alphonso Davies (19) and Jonathan David, seen celebrating Davies' goal during the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal last November, were among 26 players selected to Marsch's Canadian men's soccer team on Monday.

Jesse Marsch's first Canada selection for high-profile June friendlies against the Netherlands and France shows while you can change the coach, the talent at your disposal remains the same.Canada's Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David, seen celebrating Davies' goal during the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal last November, were among 26 players selected to Marsch's Canadian men's soccer team on Monday.

The three players who have not carried over to Marsch's squad are 22-year-old goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois and 28-year-old defender Joel Waterman and 21-year-old forward Jacen Russell-Rowe . While calling Davies "one of the world's best left backs if not the world's best left back," Marsch said his goal will be to find ways to make the Bayern Munich star "a key cog in the wheel of the system of what we're doing."

Canada, ranked 49th in the world, plays the seventh-ranked Netherlands there before facing No. 2 France three days later in Bordeaux. Marsch said he will name his coaching staff on Wednesday, suggesting that Biello would be part of his team. Biello was an assistant to Marsch when he coached Montreal in its 2012 debut season in Major League Soccer.
