With the plan of bringing a roster of around 23 players, the U.S. coach may also use the opportunity in Europe to introduce some younger players to the Senior Team program. One player who has been in the media spotlight recently is 18-year-old Julian Green, a dual citizen of the United States and Germany. After careful consideration, Green will not be included on the roster this time around; a move Klinsmann says is in the best interest of the player.

“We are going to give Julian an opportunity to breathe,” said Klinsmann. “All of these conversations and attention can be a bit overwhelming for a young player, so we decided to take the foot off the pedal and let him focus on his work at Bayern. We had a great conversation. He’s a mature young man and he clearly has a bright future. I told him that when the time is right, the door is wide open.”

I like to visualize the scene when Jurgen is on the recruiting trail. Just selling the program, speaking German to kids, telling teens to walk in the front door, wheeling and dealing.

And gold rimmed sunglasses.
