Gregg Berhalter names USMNT roster for four June matches

27 players got the call for the USMNT’s June window.

Gregg Berhalter has named a 27-man roster for the U.S. men’s national team’s June window, including a first-ever call-up for Bayern Munich’s Malik Tillman, who recently committed to the USMNT.

The USMNT will play its last two home friendlies before the 2022 World Cup, facing Morocco on June 1 at Cincinnati’s TQL Stadium before heading to Kansas City to take on Uruguay at Children’s Mercy Park on June 5.

The USMNT also has June matches in the CONCACAF Nations League against Grenada and El Salvador. They’ll host the Spice Boys on June 10 at Q2 Stadium in Austin before heading on the road for the match against El Salvador on June 14.

Aside from Tillman, the other uncapped players on Berhalter’s list are Anatalyaspor forward Haji Wright, who has parlayed a rich vein of form in Turkey into a call-up, and Borussia Mönchengladbach defender Joe Scally. In total, Berhalter has called in 17 European-based players, with the remaining 10 coming from MLS.

The injury front held mixed news. While Weston McKennie is back, the USMNT squad is without a slew of regulars due to various knocks. Sergiño Dest, Daryl Dike, Jordan Pefok, Chris Richards, Miles Robinson, and Josh Sargent are all out with injuries. John Brooks, who is leaving Wolfsburg and will be a free agent in the summer transfer window, was again left off the roster.
