C.J. Sapong receives USMNT January camp invite

Striker CJ Sapong is the lone Philadelphia Union representative included in a list of 30 players called into the United States Men’s National Team January camp by acting head coach Dave Sarachan.

The roster features 15 players looking to make their international debut and 21 players under the age of 24. All but two of the invitees play for an MLS club.

The camp will end with a friendly against Bosnia and Herzegovina on Jan. 28 at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., where the camp is also being held.

With the USSF’s eyes set on 2022 and the next World Cup, Sarachan’s roster puts the domestic-based youth at the forefront of the picture.
