The U.S. Men’s National Team is already shaking things up, bringing 16-year-old Cavan Sullivan onto the squad for their entire fall calendar. This kid is getting a shot right after the team released its full roster last week, and it’s happening just ahead of a friendly match against Peru this Saturday.
A Wild New Look for the USMNT
Alright, so the 2026 World Cup is in the rearview mirror, but the USMNT never really leaves our minds, does it? Now, here we are with a friendly against Peru this Saturday, and the roster is looking fresh. We’re talking no Christian Pulisic, no Folarin Balogun. The big names from the World Cup are sitting this one out. That just cranks up the excitement for guys like Sullivan, doesn’t it? This friendly is a major first step in a four-game fall schedule, a chance for some new blood to show what they’ve got. You gotta wonder what kind of impact a 16-year-old can make on the field, but hey, the call-up itself says something big.
