In the latest episode of Beyond the Pitch, CanPL.ca & OneSoccer’s Kristian Jack sits down with none other than Atiba Hutchinson, one of Canada’s all-time best footballers, as the Beşiktaş midfielder prepares for the men’s national team’s latest run of 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
Hutchinson discusses playing in Turkey, interest in English Premier League clubs, and what makes this Canada squad, just a handful of matches away from qualifying for their first World Cup in 35 years, so special to the 38-year-old veteran.

LEGEND! Such a great captain for Canada
Atiba is very well spoken i can see him joining the one soccer family when he finally chooses to hang up the boots.
Incredible interview KJ
thank u KJ
atiba is a hero of canadian soccer
I am so glad he's still involved with the national team. If anyone deserves a spot on the World Cup squad, it's Atiba Hutchinson. He's paid his dues and has been a loyal member of this team for almost two decades. And for most of those 20 years, it was nothing but frustration.
hutchinson eres un crack, LEGEND
You are our Legend Captain 🐙
Atiba sorry to inform you but you'll have some duties to perform late next year! Only because you deserve it! CanMNT is the strongest team in CONCACAF. This makes me blush! Go Rouges!
Zeki + Çalışkan + Spor Ahlakı Olan + örnek sporcu = Atiba Hutchinson #Beşiktaş ın Kaptanı🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
He is already a legend for us as well – Besiktas fans!
Canadian legend!
Great interview, always love to listen Atiba. He is absolutely Beşiktaş's living legend and thanks man, for the effort you've put since day 1. Always have big respect to you and your big character. Hope you and your little 3 eagles will always be with Beşiktaş.
It's really amazing to see the Besiktas fans giving our Canadian Captain love in the comments. Much respect to all the people of Turkey – thanks for looking after our guy!
Fantastic interview. Cannot wait for the games this window. Two massive home games. The captain loves Canada, and the game of football. Love Atiba!!!!!
MY GUYYYYYY
Dedem ❤️
I was hoping Atiba would be part of this series! Great interview as always KJ!
GODTIBA THERE!!!
Love this series
Atiba means a lot for Beşiktaş fans. It has been almost ten years with him in the club. it is really sad that he'll not be with us forever. no one will able to fill his shoes when he is retired. thank you Canada for Atiba! oh, also for Cyle Larin ! he is good too. but he is about to leave the club soon. it's also sad. young Canadian talents are always welcome in Beşiktaş. let us know when you have promising players 🙂
