Bournemouth's Daniel Jebbison commits to Canada's national team

Daniel Jebbison, a 21-year-old forward from Premier League side Bournemouth, has decided to switch his international allegiance from England to Canada and is listed on Canada's preliminary squad for the 2025 CONCACAF Nations League Finals. Born in Oakville, Ontario, Jebbison is eligible to represent Canada, England, and Jamaica and has previously played for England at youth levels, including the Under-20 World Cup in 2023. His official transfer to Canada requires FIFA's approval, which Canada Soccer anticipates completing soon. Jebbison's recruitment was influenced by Canada manager Jesse Marsch, who showcased how Jebbison's playing style aligns with the team’s strategy and highlighted the opportunity to participate in the co-hosted 2026 World Cup. Despite limited scoring in the Premier League this season, Jebbison has found success in the FA Cup, netting two goals in two appearances. An official announcement regarding his commitment is expected shortly.
