The United States team is preparing for the World Cup in Qatar with great expectations. Coach Gregg Berhalter has a young and ambitious team hoping to make a deep run in the tournament. The US has been drawn into a tough group with England, Wales, and Iran, but the team is confident they can compete with the best in the world.
The US will look to stars like Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie to lead the way on the pitch, and they will hope to surprise some of their more experienced opponents. With a strong showing in Qatar, the US could solidify its place as one of the top soccer nations in the world.
But the team has received worrying news about goalkeeper Matt Turner.
This Thursday, before the Europa League match between PSV and Arsenal, the London club confirmed the absence of American goalkeeper Matt Turner due to a groin injury.
At the moment, the seriousness of the injury is unknown, and if this could be a problem for the player to participate in the world cup.
In less than two weeks, Berhalter is scheduled to release the final US squad for Qatar 2022.
Middlesbrough goalkeeper Zack Steffen is the likely alternative should Turner fail to recover in time. Steffen is not at a great level, and in the games he has participated as a starter, he has a record of two wins, three losses, and two draws.
Although Turner arrived at Arsenal this season, the goalkeeper has shown a good level and is the first choice of Team USA.
