Returning stars, new faces and notable omissions: one last club weekend to build momentum ahead of USMNT duty - or show Mauricio Pochettino what he's missing.
Concacaf has announced a radical format change for the 2027 Gold Cup, introducing a 'Swiss Model' system to the group stage. The revamp means regional heavyweights like the United States and Mexico could face each other much earlier in the competition.
Pulisic, McKennie and Adams were thrown into a rebuild. Now, they can give Cavan Sullivan and the USMNT's next generation the guidance and patience they lacked.
Christian Pulisic endured a testing 2026 World Cup with the USMNT, leading to “a lot of criticism” coming his way for “the first time in his career”, but Brad Friedel has told GOAL that the American superstar made the right career call in signing a new contract at AC Milan and retaining stability in his club career. The talented forward is now tied to terms at San Siro through to 2031.
