CHICAGO (AP) — Dallas midfielder Brek Shea and New York forward Juan Agudelo are among 23 players picked for the U.S. under-23 roster for a training camp before Olympic qualifying next month.
Shea and Agudelo were among five newcomers selected Thursday by coach Caleb Porter. The group will practice for 10 days in Frisco, Texas, then play an exhibition game there on Feb. 29 against Mexico’s under-23 team.
Also new to the group are defenders Perry Kitchen of D.C. United, Ike Opara of San Jose and Alfredo Morales of Germany’s Hertha Berlin.
Shea and Agudelo have been regular selections with the full national team and will miss its Feb. 29 exhibition at Italy.
