Pochettino 'cannot consider' Banks call-up for USMNT camp

U.S. Men's National Team Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino says that Noahkai Banks will not be considered for a call-up for the team's upcoming camp, as the Augsburg defender remains undecided about his international future. Banks removed himself from consideration for a USMNT call-up in March and, ultimately, for the World Cup as he mulled over his future with both the U.S. and Germany.
