Overseas based Josh Laqeretabua and Semi Nabenu have been invited to join the Fiji Under 20 training camp.

Laqeretabua is from Charlton Athletic and Nabenu from Auckland United.

Digicel Junior Bula Boys Team Manager Kartik Reddy hopes that their inclusion will boost the squad for the 2023 FIFA Under 20 World Cup.

The Manager says they have 86 days to go for the Word Cup and the team will continue to work accordingly to the plan set up by Head Coach Rodolfo Zapata and his staff.

He says playing top teams in the build-up to the World Cup provides an opportunity for the playing squad to build confidence and adapt to the different game situations.

The Manager also says discipline is another area that will be addressed as a strong emphasis will be put on improving the decision making of the players during pressure situations.

The team returns on Friday.
