Doesn’t Rubio Rubin play for someone else now?

I don't think he's done any paperwork yet. We have reached out to him and he seems to be willing to stick with us as long as he's in the picture.

There's also questions about Nyeman's current eligibility.

Akinola is on Canada's roster but not the USMNT's.

Hope, CCV and Green were the only euro-based guys, correct?

ETA: And Cannon

Per U.S. Soccer on the eligibility of Moses Nyeman: "His U.S. passport is in the process of being completed." #USMNT #DCU #USYNT #goldcup

I’m surprised to see Cannon, Lletget, and Acosta on there since they played in nations league.

Gives a lot of these MLS guys a chance to showcase themselves and be in a camp in front of the coaches. They have some young guys on the roster that can be moving to Europe soon and really factor into 2026.

The more we dominant CONCACAF, the better.

It makes it more likely fans get invested in US soccer. It makes it more likely a Mexican-American will declare to play for the US. It makes it so we will be able to schedule better friendlies and improve our world ranking.

We don’t have the soccer success in the US to treat any competition as unimportant.

Steven Goff
@SoccerInsider

Clarification: Moses Nyeman is a US citizen. Occurred in past year when his mom was naturalized. Because he was under 18, he's automatically a citizen. He doesn't have a passport yet. That's coming soon, probably in time for Gold Cup eligibility. (He's also eligible for Liberia.)
