With Benito Floro out of the picture, Jonathan Osorio is back with the Canadian men's national team. Under Canada's former manager, Osorio was consistently left off of the team in favour of options that Floro felt fit his system better.
Osorio's last call-up for the national team came during the 2015 Gold Cup, where Canada went winless and failed to qualify for the knockout round. In Canada's final group game against Costa Rica at BMO Field, Osorio was taken out of the game early as Canada were pushing for a late winner. Frustrated, Osorio stormed past Floro on his way to the bench.
