Establishing team culture a primary target for Berhalter's first USMNT camp

U.S. national team head coach Gregg Berhalter is looking to develop a culture within the team in his first camp in charge.

The former Columbus Crew boss was named as the full-time coach for the USMNT in early December, replacing interim coach Dave Sarachan.

Sarachan spent over a year in charge after the USA’s failed bid at a 2018 World Cup spot, and Berhalter has now been tasked with rebuilding the program ahead of the next qualifying cycle.
