    McKennie has been thriving at Juventus in 2023/24, coming off of a disappointing loan spell away from the club last season at now-relegated Leeds United. The USMNT midfielder has slotted into the central pivot in Massimiliano Allegri's system perfectly, but in cases, has also played right wing-back for the Italian. Regardless, he continues to impress for the Bianconeri - which is great news for Gregg Berhalter and the U.S. men's national team.
