Serie A leaders AC Milan host third-placed Juventus on Sunday in a massive game in Italy, which will also attract plenty of attention from across the Atlantic, with four American players involved.
United States men’s national team captain and Bournemouth defensive midfielder Tyler Adams is expected to be out until February 2024 with a hamstring issue.
Adams already missed six months of action this year after suffering a hamstring injury that required surgery in March.
The 24-year-old made one appearance for his new club Bournemouth in September before reaggravating his hamstring issue.
Gio Reyna was the star on Tuesday for the United States men’s national team as he bagged two goals during the 4-0 victory against Ghana.
The friendly win was a great response to the USMNT’s disappointing 3-1 defeat vs. Germany on Sunday.
Reyna has hardly seen the field for his club side Borussia Dortmund this season but had two quality 45-minute cameos for the U.S. in the October international window.
The United States men’s national team is back together for two upcoming friendlies which means fans get to see fun behind the scenes moments of the team.
A video of Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie and Timothy Weah tossing around the pigskin in Nashville is one of the highlights from their latest training camp. It’s great to see the USMNT players bonding and goofing off together.
To be fair though, there were some pretty impressive highlights.
Gio Reyna was one of the 23 names on Gregg Berhalter’s latest United States men’s national team roster which was announced on Wednesday.
The U.S. is set to play two friendly games stateside with the first being against Germany and the other vs. Ghana.
Here are the 23 players that will represent the USMNT.

United States men’s national team forward Gio Reyna is having a rough start to the 2023-24 club season with Borussia Dortmund. Reyna remained on the bench Wednesday as an unused substitute as Dortmund drew AC Milan 0-0 in the Champions League.
His USMNT teammates Christian Pulisic and Yunus Musah both started for Milan, but Reyna would never see the field.
Gio Reyna is an unused sub for Edin Terzić's Borussia Dortmund side for the fourth straight match across all competitions.
Christian Pulisic says that games would be better for fans if VAR (video assistant referee) was no longer part of the game. The Pulisic VAR opinion came as a surprise to most fans who consider VAR a positive addition.
Pulisic shared this take on Tim Ream’s podcast “The American Dream.”
Christian Pulisic had one of his best performances yet in an AC Milan shirt on Saturday scoring in the Rossoneri’s 2-0 victory against Lazio. The Pulisic goal vs Lazio was a powerful strike on the half volley.
The first half was relatively quiet for Pulisic and Milan as Lazio sat deep and chances were few and far between. The second half saw the game come to life and culminated in Rafael Leão finding Pulisic for the opening goal in the 60th minute.
Christian Pulisic got an assist and helped set up another goal during AC Milan’s 3-1 victory vs. Cagliari in Serie A action on Wednesday. The Pulisic assist vs Cagliari is his first in a Milan shirt.
Wednesday’s game looked better for Pulisic after a string of so-so performances. Milan manager Stefano Pioli rotated his players and shifted Pulisic from the right wing to the left wing as Rafael Leão and Olivier Giroud were rested.
Here was the moment in the 60th minute when Pulisic set up Ruben Loftus-Cheek for a long-range goal to make it 3-1.
United States men’s national team fans might have felt discouraged on Tuesday to see the Christian Pulisic benched news. For the first time this season Pulisic wasn’t in AC Milan’s starting XI as the club hosted Newcastle to a 0-0 draw in their UEFA Champions League opener.
Nigerian forward Samuel Chukwueze started in Pulisic’s usual place on the right wing for his first start with the club. Chukwueze arrived from Villarreal in the summer.
