USMNT roster for Ireland and France friendlies

USMNT interim coach Dave Sarachan released the roster for the two June friendlies in Europe. The USMNT plays Ireland in Dublin on June 2 (3pm ET – ESPN2), and France in Lyon on June 9 (3pm ET – ESPN). The roster transitions from the one that beat Bolivia 3-0 on Monday, with seven players leaving the squad (Alex Bono, Alejandro Guido, Lynden Gooch, Ethan Horvath, Matt Olosunde, Christian Pulisic, and Walker Zimmerman). Sarachan called in ten new players, bringing the squad total to 25.

We’re excited about the chance to add some of the veterans from Europe as well as the younger guys in MLS who have been part of our group since November,” Sarachan said. “The games against Ireland and France will bring increasingly more difficult challenges, so we felt it was important to bring in some players that offer a bit more experience. These matches will provide another big development opportunity for these players who are growing in their international careers.”

UPDATE: On June 7, US Soccer announced that Kenny Saief has left the squad due to injury.
