USMNT 2026 Roster & McKennie's Rise

The U.S. Men’s National Team has locked in its 26-player roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, set to kick off June 11th and run through July 19th across North America. Midfielder Weston McKennie, a Texas-born star since his 2017 debut, headlines the squad with his record-breaking speed, CONCACAF honors, and pivotal role in regional triumphs. Playing for Juventus and extending his contract through 2030, McKennie embodies grit and excellence. As a co-host, the U.S. aims to break through its knockout stage drought and improve on its best-ever quarterfinal finish in 2002. Group stage matchups against Paraguay, Australia, and Türkiye in LA and Seattle will be critical for advancing and showcasing the growth of American soccer on the world stage.
