Five Serie A players including Milan star Christian Pulisic and Juventus’s Timothy Weah have been called up as part of Mauricio Pochettino’s latest USMNT squad ahead of the Nations League quarter-final double-header against Jamaica in November.
Five Serie A players in latest USMNT squad
Pulisic, who has been one of Serie A’s most productive attackers so far this season, has been called up as usual, as has Rossoneri teammate Yunus Musah, who earned rave reviews after his performance in the 3-1 Champions League victory away against Real Madrid last week.
Weah made it four goals from eight Serie A appearances this term with his opener in Juventus’s 2-0 win over Torino in the Derby della Mole on Saturday evening. He has also been called up alongside Bianconeri teammate Weston McKennie, who has again fought his way back into the Juventus first-team this season.
Venezia midfielder Gianluca Busio is the fifth USA international based in Serie A to be called up for November’s fixtures.
The USMNT will play twice against Jamaica, in Kingston initially, before hosting the Reggae Boyz in St. Louis four days later.
