Vancouver FC forward Mika毛l Cantave has earned his third call up to the Haitian Men鈥檚 National team in 2024, ahead of the nation鈥檚 next group stage matches in the 2024/25 Concacaf Nations League (CNL). 

Most recently, Cantave, 27, started in Haiti鈥檚 first match against Puerto Rico on Friday, Sept. 6 followed by a second-half substitute appearance in Haiti鈥檚 second game against Sint Maarten, where the Ottawa native scored two goals.

Cantave represented Haiti for the first time this year in the country鈥檚 Concacaf World Cup Qualifiers in June, where he made two appearances and registered one assist.

Cantave joined Vancouver as a mid-season transfer in June 2023 and has made 26 starts in 39 appearances across all competitions for the Eagles. The attacker has registered five goals and five assists in his VFC career, including one goal and three assists this season, setting a new Canadian Premier League (CPL) career high for single-season assists.

Cantave has registered 16 caps for Haiti, the country of his father鈥檚 birth, since making his international debut in 2018.

Haiti is currently undefeated in Group C, having registered a combined ten goals in the nation鈥檚 first two CNL matches, as Cantave and the team now face Aruba in back-to-back games.

The matches will be contested at Estadio Guillermo Pr贸spero Trinidad in Oranjestad, Aruba on Friday, Oct. 11 and Monday, Oct. 14.

As a result, Cantave will not be available for Vancouver鈥檚 final CPL regular season home match on Sunday, Oct. 13 against Valour FC for the club鈥檚 Fan Appreciation Match. The game is set to kick off at 2 p.m.
