Manchester City-bound goalkeeper Zack Steffen and Schalke midfielder Weston McKennie headline the 28-man squad Gregg Berhalter is calling in for Wednesday's friendly against Jamaica at Audi Field.
With the deadline to submit his 23-man Gold Cup roster set for Wednesday evening, Berhalter will look to make his final decisions on roster spots in the coming days. Two players not on the 28-man roster, but who are expected to be part of the Gold Cup squad, are Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams. Those two are on break after the conclusion of their Bundesliga campaigns, but are expected to join up with the U.S. team once the final Gold Cup squad is set.
MORE: Steffen fueled by more than determination
New York Red Bulls defender Aaron Long is on the roster for the Jamaica friendly despite the hamstring injury that has kept him sidelined for two weeks. Berhalter will have a chance this week to determine whether Long can recover in time to be a factor for the Gold Cup, or if he will wind up joining John Brooks and DeAndre Yedlin on the list of injured U.S. defenders who will miss the summer tournament.
Another player who is set to miss the Gold Cup is Club Brugge goalkeeper Ethan Horvath, who is recovering from a finger injury and wasn't available for selection. His absence will open up a goalkeeper spot alongside Steffen and Sean Johnson at the Gold Cup, with LAFC's Tyler Miller and Atlanta United's Brad Guzan the contenders for that spot.
The squad also features some new faces in Derby County midfielder Duane Holmes, and New Zealand-born midfielder Tyler Boyd, who recently finalized a change of association with FIFA to play for the United States.
The USMNT will face Jamaica before taking on Venezuela in Cincinnati on June 9 in the final pre-Gold Cup tuneup. The Americans open their 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup on June 18 against Guyana in Minnesota.
