January 5, 2024 (CINCINNATI, OH) – FC Cincinnati had three players called-up to the US Men’s National Team roster, tied-best with in-state rivals Columbus Crew for most on the 25 man roster for January’s friendly in San Antonio against Slovenia.
Goalkeeper Roman Celentano gets a second consecutive January camp call-up to the USMNT alongside fellow MLS goalkeepers Drake Callender (Inter Miami CF) and Patrick Schulte (Columbus Crew). None of the three goalkeepers have earned a cap on the USMNT.
Ian Murphy gets his first USMNT call-up this window after breaking out with FC Cincinnati in the second half of the 2023 season. He, alongside Celentano, are two of 15 players on the USMNT roster this January that have yet to earn a cap.
Newly signed defender Miles Robinson also gets the call-up to the USMNT, his 27 caps the most on the roster this time around. Robinson signed a 1-year contract with FC Cincinnati two days prior to the call-up announcement.
The US Men’s National Team plays Slovenia in San Antonio on January 20th. Coverage of the match starts at 3 p.m. EST on TNT, Telemundo, Universe, MAX, and Peacock.
