The U.S. Men's National Team sees the return of key players Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, and Folarin Balogun as they prepare for their CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals against Haiti.
Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, and Folarin Balogun have been named to the U.S. Men's National Team roster for the upcoming CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals against Haiti. Coach Mauricio Pochettino has opted to blend experienced players with a youthful squad that has shown promise in recent friendlies.
The U.S. team is gearing up for two crucial matches, set to take place on November 14 in Miami and November 17 in Cincinnati.
On November 4, 2026, the U.S. announced its 25-man roster, highlighting the return of Pulisic, Balogun, and McKennie after their absences in previous friendlies due to injuries and club commitments.
The team had a successful run in the fall, winning all four of their friendlies against Peru, Chile, Mexico, and Canada, which helped solidify player selections.
Previously, Pulisic had been sidelined recovering from a microfracture injury, while Balogun had limited playtime at Monaco. McKennie's recent injury from Juventus raised some concerns, but he has been included in the roster.
The matches against Haiti mark the first significant competition for the U.S. since their Round of 16 exit from the World Cup, making this a pivotal moment for the squad.
As the U.S. prepares for these critical fixtures, the blend of veteran leadership and emerging talent will be tested against a competitive Haitian side. The team aims to maintain their strong form and secure a place in the semifinals.
