Four Seattle Sounders Academy players named to United States U-17, U-15 national team rosters

Four standouts from the Seattle Sounders Academy — Homegrown players Danny Leyva and Alfonso Ocampo-Chavez, U-17 midfielder Ethan Dobbelaere and U-15 center back Angel Martinez — have been called up to the United States youth national teams this week.

Leyva, 16, and Ocampo-Chavez, 17, have burst onto the scene in recent months. Both players were integral components of the U.S. U-17 men’s national team that finished second at the 2019 Concacaf Championships, securing a spot at the FIFA World Cup in Brazil in October.

The camp will take place at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Calif.
