Jhon Durán called up to the Colombian National Team

The Colombian national team may not be headed to Qatar this winter for the World Cup, but when they take the field this month for some friendlies, there will be some Fire representation. After an impressive season where he has shown flashes of brilliance on numerous occasions, 18-year-old striker Jhon Durán earned his first call-up to Los Cafeteros. He is the only MLS player in the squad.

Durán has had an up-and-down first season in Chicago. With 11 starts, Durán has 5 goals and 3 assists. He has recorded braces twice this season, including one last weekend against Inter Miami.
