Glasgow Rangers midfielder Fraser Aird set to join Canadian senior camp

TORONTO – Fraser Aird is set to attend his first camp with the Canadian senior soccer team, the Canadian Soccer Association has confirmed.

The 20-year-old Glasgow Rangers midfielder is part of the senior roster to be announced Friday for a camp next week in Florida ahead of an Oct. 11 friendly with Ghana in Washington.

Aird will join newcomer David (Junior) Hoilett at the Canadian camp.

The Toronto-born Aird was part of a Canadian under-15 camp in 2010 and played in a U15 friendly against the U.S. He represented Scotland at the under-17 level.

Aird was slated to be part of the Canada team at the CONCACAF Under-20 Championship earlier this year, but had to sit out due to club commitments.
