Pulisic Among the US Starters to Miss CONCACAF Gold Cup, Last Competitive Matches Before World Cup

  • Christian Pulisic and several regular starters will miss the United States' CONCACAF Gold Cup matches next month, the last before the 2026 World Cup.
  • Pulisic and his advisers requested to be left off due to his heavy workload of about 120 games over two seasons, while other players missed out for injuries or club commitments.
  • The U.S. Team, coming off poor performances in the Copa America and Nations League, will include 16 MLS players, with Sergiño Dest and Folarin Balogun returning from injuries.
  • Coach Mauricio Pochettino, who took over from Gregg Berhalter following the U.S. Team's early exit at last summer's Copa America, stressed the importance of demonstrating to fans that positive changes are underway.
  • Pochettino indicated the team learned from recent camps and decided what was best for Pulisic and the national team, suggesting a new approach for these matches before limited World Cup training windows begin.
