Currently on loan at League One side Huddersfield Town, the 21-year-old has previously represented Canada at youth level, making his debut for the U20 team in April 2022 in two friendly matches against Costa Rica.
Goodman’s call-up follows a strong 24/25 season, during which he played a crucial role on loan at AFC Wimbledon. Across 54 competitive appearances, he kept 25 clean sheets, including three consecutive shutouts in the play-off semi-finals against Notts County and the final against Walsall, helping the Dons secure promotion.
His performances earned him the League Two Golden Glove for most clean sheets and a place in the League Two Team of the Season. Of those 25 shutouts, 24 came in League Two, a tally that ranked him joint-second for clean sheets in a single season since records began in 2006/07, alongside 'keepers such as Kasper Schmeichel and Lawrence Vigouroux.
Goodman had previously impressed during 40 appearances for Colchester United in 23/24.
A product of the Crystal Palace Academy, Goodman joined at Under-13s level and appeared in four first-team matchday squads during the 22/23 season.

In October, Canada hosted Australia in Montréal – their first match in the city since 2017 – before earning a draw against Colombia, currently ranked in the FIFA Top 15, in Harrison, New Jersey.
Everyone at Palace congratulates Owen on his call-up and wishes him the very best during the upcoming internationals.
