"The United States World Cup 2026 squad is starting to become a little clearer. The United States of America will face off against Australia and Ecuador as they look to build towards being World Cup 2026 hosts the second time in their history they've held the competition. They will be led by the experienced Mauricio Pochettino who has the unenviable task of galvanising the nation as they welcome the rest of the footballing world."
"You may like Tyler Adams will not be part of the preparations in October, however. The Bournemouth midfielder, who has played almost all of Bournemouth's minutes in the Premier League this season and captained the side in the 2022 World Cup, is a surprise omission, given the fact that he is usually a mainstay. Antonee Robinson returns after undergoing knee surgery at the end of last season, and Patrick Agyemang also returns after his summer transfer from Charlotte FC to Derby County."
"GK: Chris Brady (Chicago Fire) GK: Matt Freese (New York City FC) GK: Patrick Schulte (Columbus Crew) GK: Matt Turner (New England Revolution) DF: Max Arfsten (Columbus Crew) DF: Cameron Carter-Vickers (Celtic) DF: Alex Freeman (Orlando City) DF: Mark McKenzie (Toulouse) DF: Tim Ream (Charlotte FC) DF: Chris Richards (Crystal Palace) DF: Antonee Robinson (Fulham) DF: Miles Robinson (FC Cincinnati)"
United States will play friendlies against Australia and Ecuador as part of preparations for hosting the 2026 World Cup. Mauricio Pochettino will lead the squad and oversee October training sessions. Tyler Adams is omitted from the October group despite heavy Premier League minutes and World Cup experience. Antonee Robinson and Patrick Agyemang return after injury recovery and a transfer respectively. Johnny Cardoso, Giovanni Reyna, and Sergino Dest are absent due to injury or recovery timelines. The October selection includes four goalkeepers, multiple defenders including Max Arfsten and Tim Ream, midfielders such as Brenden Aaronson and Weston McKennie, and forwards like Christian Pulisic and Florian Balogun.
