The United States Men’s National Team will have a mostly MLS-based roster when they take on Mexico in the inaugural Continental Clásico next week. Today, U.S. Soccer announced the 23 players that will travel to Arizona to compete in the friendly next Wednesday.
The match falls outside of a FIFA international window, so clubs were not required to release players for the match. Still, AC Milan defender Sergiño Dest and FC Juárez midfielder Alan Soñora were called in to the USMNT for the friendly. The rest of the players are from clubs in Major League Soccer, with 10 players from the roster having represented the United States at the 2022 World Cup.
