TORONTO — Toronto FC fullback/wingback Richie Laryea, sidelined by a hamstring injury since the Feb. 25 season opener, is expected to return to action Saturday at D.C. United.
Coach John Herdman said Laryea will travel with the MLS team for Wednesday's game in Philadelphia but won't take the field until Saturday. With two away games this week, Toronto plans to stay south of the border after the mid-week game.
The 29-year-old Laryea and TFC captain Jonathan Osorio were included Monday in Jesse Marsch's first roster selection as Canada coach for friendlies June 6 and 9 against the Netherlands and France. "Richie's had a tough run so I'm pleased Jesse put the trust in him, because he's a guy who loves playing for Canada. He gives his everything and I've seen him reach special levels in that Canadian jersey. While he plays in MLS, when he plays for Canada he's able to show he's got world-class ability. And I'd say the same for Osorio."
" comes at time for us in June where you'd love to have had that full squad available," he said."But having been the guy that took players away from MLS clubs and not worry too much about it, being on the other end you've just got to pat these boys on the back and wish them all the best."
