Touch contre le Sporting au mois de janvier, Fabian Ruiz n'est depuis toujours pas revenu dans le groupe parisien. Un manque dans l'entrejeu de Luis Enrique.

Bumrah's consistent performance across formats continues to be a significant asset for the Indian team.

Crunch time is coming. The start of this summers World Cup is less than 100 days away. Its an exciting time, no doubt, but for players, these can be nervy days. Especially right now, given that the U.S. mens national team hasnt been together since November. A lot has happened since then, and the upcoming March training camp which features matches against Belgium (March 28) and Portugal (March 31) in Atlanta is of the utmost importance because it's the last one before Mauricio Pochettino's final 26-man roster is announced. Those who get called up in March will feel some relief, while those who don't will feel their stress levels rise. Here's who has improved their cases, who has work to do: Stock Up Johnny Cardoso, Midfielder, Atltico Madrid Cardoso made this list last week after scoring his first goal for the club. This week, he started and played 90 minutes in Atletis 3-0 loss to Barcelona. Despite the defeat, they advanced to the Copa del Rey final on 4-3 aggregate. After battling injuries, Cardoso seems to finally be getting into a rhythm at a big La Liga club. He hasnt played for the USA since last summer and hasnt had a statement game to prove to Pochettino why he deserves a World Cup roster spot yet. But, perhaps his recent club performances and consistency might earn him a March call up. Weston McKennie, Midfielder, Juventus McKennie is no doubt the hottest USA player right now. Whether hes scoring goals or showing off his versatility and playing different positions for coach Luciano Spalletti, his name is constantly making headlines. And hes likely at the top of Pochettinos list for March camp. This week, McKennie signed a new deal at Juventus that keeps him with the Serie A club until 2030. McKennie will reportedly make $7 million per year a well-earned deal given hes scored eight goals so far this season. "McKennie has been a powerful tool on both the right and left wings for [manager] Luciano Spalletti, winning the hearts of the fans, and he is now reaping the rewards of his daily hard work in training," Juventus said in a statement. Antonee Jedi Robinson, Fullback, Fulham Its a relief for USA fans to see Robinson in the "stock up" section here. Robinson went 90 for Fulham in a 1-0 loss to West Ham on Wednesday it was his first Premier League appearance since Feb. 1 (he started in a FA Cup match vs. Stoke City on Feb. 15). Hed been dealing with a minor ankle issue, which was concerning because Robinson had previously missed so much time after recovering from a nagging knee injury. But playing the entire match and not having to gradually build up fitness is huge. Fulham next plays Southampton in a FA Cup match on Sunday. Josh Sargent, Striker, Toronto FC Finally, the saga is over. Sargent has left Norwich City and joined Toronto FC for a reported $22 million in fees. The striker signed a five-and-a-half year contract that will keep him with the MLS club through June 2031. While the drama surrounding Sargents desire to move closer to family in North America is behind him, whats still ahead is the fact that theres not much time left to impress Pochettino. Sargent has had his chances, but has struggled to score goals for the national team. Maybe if he can get off to a quick start in Toronto, things will be different? We'll see. His form may have dipped in the last month after he was demoted to train with the U21 team in Norwich while waiting for this transfer. Even so, its a net positive that hes back in MLS ahead of a pivotal summer. Stock Down Diego Luna, Forward, Real Salt Lake Luna is still out with a knee injury and has not played in a match for his club yet this season. After a breakthrough season in 2025, Luna seemed like a lock to make Pochettinos World Cup roster. He still should, but his availability for March camp will be key. RSL travels to Atlanta this weekend, so well get a health update then. Matt Turner, Goalkeeper, New England Revolution Turner, who was the USMNTs starting goalkeeper at the 2022 World Cup, lost his spot to Matt Freese less than a year ago. Freese, who plays for NYCFC, started the last 12 matches of 2025 for the U.S., including every game in last summers Gold Cup. Turner is the ultimate competitor and wants his spot back. So much so that he joined the Revs last summer on loan from Lyon through June 2026. Hes playing more now, which is a plus, but the club is 0-2 to start the season. Pochettino will have to see much more from him in order for Turner to replace Freese. Christian Pulisic, Forward, AC Milan Pulisic is going to be the face of the United States squad at the World Cup this summer. Theres no question about that at all. But his current form is mildly concerning. The star forward has not scored a goal in nine straight matches for AC Milan. If this drought continues, it will be an unfortunate story line that Pulisic will have to address during training camp later this month.
