Overview

  • The United States will face South Korea on September 6 in Harrison, New Jersey, then play Japan on September 10 in Columbus, Ohio.
  • Mauricio Pochettino said the roster is intended to strengthen the team and narrow the player pool ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
  • The 28-year-old goalkeeper is under contract with Serie B club Cesena after previous stops at LA Galaxy, St. Gallen and Hertha BSC, posting 27 league appearances last season with 30 goals conceded and seven clean sheets.
  • FC Augsburg’s 18-year-old Noahkei Banks also received a first call-up to the senior squad.
  • Klinsmann was previously called into the US senior squad in 2018 without making an appearance, and a debut next month is not guaranteed with Matt Turner the established starter.
