Canberra export Marc Tokich makes Young Socceroos squad
READ MORE
Canberra FC junior Marc Tokich will begin a week-long Young Socceroos camp on Saturday as they prepare for the under-19 Asian Football Confederation Cup next month.
Tokich has made two appearances for the Young Socceroos and will likely add to his tally when Australia face South Korea in their opener in Indonesia on October 19.
The 19-year-old came through the AIS Centre of Excellence before signing with the Western Sydney Wanderers and making his A-League debut last season.
The camp will be held on the Central Coast and includes practice matches against A-League teams, which means Tokich could come up against Usain Bolt.
The Central Coast Mariners star import made his debut in a trial on Friday night and the eight-time Olympic champion drew almost 10,000 fans.
Bolt was enthusiastic but the general consensus is he’ll need plenty of improvement to earn an A-League cap when the season starts in October.
