Forge FC announced Thursday the club has selected McMaster University Attacker Miles Green (first-round, ninth overall) and York University defender Milo Djuricic [JUR-ich-ich] (second-round, sixteenth overall) in the 2023 CPL-U SPORTS draft. The players can be invited to participate in preseason camp with the opportunity to sign a CPL-U SPORTS Developmental Contract that allows a student-athlete with one to four years of U SPORTS eligibility remaining to sign with a CPL club, while preserving their eligibility before returning to U SPORTS competition.

Green, 22, has made 39 appearances over four seasons (2018-2022) at McMaster University tallying 18 goals and four assists, playing a massive role in the University's run to the 2022 OUA Championship title. The 6-0, native of Toronto, Ontario, played with Hamilton United of League 1 Ontario in 2022 and finished the season with a league-leading 23 goals.

Djuricic, 22, has made 16 appearances and recorded one goal and one assist over two seasons with York University (2021-2022). The 6-4 defender and native of Brampton, Ontario, was a key-defender for York University's backline during its run to the 2021 U SPORTS Championship.

Since 2018 the Canadian Premier League has held a draft for eligible U SPORTS men's soccer players who have registered and declared themselves available to be selected through the League's annual draft.
