Back in June, Werder’s centre forward was met with huge disappointment as the 19-year-old failed to make head coach Berhalter’s final squad for the 2019 Gold Cup. “Of course, at first it was very frustrating to not make the squad,” the Werder player told Werder.de. However, since then he has had enough time to continue working hard and to make an impression on Berhalter.
“I am hungrier than ever and want to prove to everyone that I am good enough.” The American could potentially play a part in both the US national team’s upcoming friendlies against Mexico and Uruguay (06/09/2019 02:30 CEST – 10/09/2019 02:00 CEST). The second game (vs. Uruguay) will be of particular significance to the striker, as it will be played in his hometown of St. Louis.
