Román Torres already heading out for National Team duty

There is no doubt that Panama’s National Team loves Roman Torres. During Copa America they called him in as a ceremonial captain. Now, a mere day after being activated from the Disabled List, he will join Panama for their World Cup Qualifiers against Jamaica and Costa Rica.

Panama is currently second in their group to Costa Rica. The top two will advance to the Hexagonal Round.

Five MLS players are on the Panamanian side, including Blaz Perez of Vancouver Whitecaps who will miss his club’s match against New York Red Bulls. No other Panamanian MLS player is missing a club game.
