According to ESPN Soccer, Sullivan, a Philadelphia Union phenom, headlines the roster, which consists of a mix of young and veteran players. The team includes 13 uncapped players, including Crystal Palace attacker Zavier Gozo and Philadelphia Union defender Neil Pierre.
Pochettino has stated that the team will consist of a mix of young and veteran players, and the roster reflects this, with a balance of experienced players and newcomers. The USMNT will face Peru on Sept. 26 in Orlando, followed by matches against Chile, Mexico, and Canada.
Sullivan's inclusion in the squad is a significant development, as he has been touted as a future star for the USMNT. He has recently been in impressive form, scoring six goals and adding eight assists since the resumption of play following the MLS break.
Pochettino has also handed a recall to AC Milan midfielder Yunus Musah, who hasn't featured for the U.S. since the 2025 Concacaf Nations League finals. West Bromwich Albion defender George Campbell returns for the first time since earning his sole U.S. cap against Venezuela in January 2025.
Players will begin reporting to Atlanta on Sept. 20, ahead of the upcoming matches.
