The U-17 US national team has released its roster for the upcoming Four Nations Tournament in Mexico City with Argentina, Mexico and Chile.
It features 10 players tied to MLS clubs, including Gilbert Fuentes, who signed a Homegrown contract with the San Jose Earthquakes. Also in the team are Seattle Sounders duo Ray Serrano and Alfonso Ocampo Chavvez, who have both signed USL deals. They have each have made three appearances for Sounders II this season.
“At this time of the cycle, it’s about trying to identify players to make the depth chart a little bit deeper,” coach Shaun Tsakiris said in a media release. “Any opportunity that we have to give players a chance to show they deserve to be in the pool and in the cycle at this important time is imperative. We want to reward guys who have done well for the U-16 Boys’ National Team. Tyler Freeman did very well in Costa Rica and now we’ll get a chance to evaluate if Cade Cowell and Mauricio Cuevas could potentially help our U-17s as they get closer to qualifying.”
