Gio Reyna returns to USMNT squad as Pulisic and McKennie miss out

The Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder returns to the national team for the first time since March as injuries and recoveries rule out regulars

Gio Reyna and Joe Scally will make their US men's national team returns in the upcoming international window, while Christian Pulisic is among several regulars set to miss out. But while the Milan midfielder has just recovered from an injury suffered during his most recent time with the national team, Weston McKennie's absence is a bit more surprising.

Reyna and Scally, both of Borussia Monchengladbach, are among a 25-player squad named by manager Mauricio Pochettino for two friendlies: against Paraguay on 15 November at Subaru Park in Chester, Pennsylvania, and against Uruguay at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida on 18 November.
