At least one Columbus Crew player will be playing competitive matches this month during the preseason. Crew winger Luis Diaz has been selected to the Under-23 Costa Rica team that is going to Guadalajara, Mexico for the CONCACAF Men’s Olympic Qualifying Championship. The 22 year old was an expected selection to the team after being picked on multiple occasions to Los Ticos senior squad in the last year.
Diaz has made four caps for the Costa Rican Men’s National Team with his first coming in October of 2019 as a substitute against Uruguay in a friendly.
