The U.S. men's national team is gathering again, assembling on Monday for the November international window ahead of a two-match series against Haiti in the Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals — the Stars and Stripes' first competitive matches of the post-World Cup era.
Head coach Mauricio Pochettino has assembled a 25-man squad he believes is best suited to not only sustain the USMNT's current momentum but also develop into a dominant force ahead of the 2030 World Cup. Most notably, Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, and Folarin Balogun have all earned recalls to the squad.
The Americans strung together four straight wins last month, closing out the lengthy September-October international window on a perfect note and demonstrating that they drew plenty of valuable lessons from the 2026 World Cup on home turf. Pochettino was particularly pleased with a commanding 3–0 victory over Mexico and a narrow 1–0 win over Canada — his first triumphs against either North American rival since taking charge in 2024.
This marks just the beginning of a thrilling new era for the USMNT. Below is the roster Pochettino has selected for the November camp, blending experienced veterans with a number of rising talents.

The USMNT received a pre-seeding, based on official Concacaf rankings, for the Nations League quarterfinal stage, entering the competition this month with home and away legs against Haiti, who claimed second place in the League A group stage last month.
The USMNT's designated "away" fixture will actually be held at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT at Nu Stadium in Miami, due to persistent security concerns in Haiti. The USMNT will then serve as the home side three days later at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.
The team with the higher aggregate score will advance to the 2027 Concacaf Nations League Finals, scheduled for March at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. The victor will also earn automatic qualification to the 2027 Concacaf Gold Cup.
While Haiti sits seventh in the Concacaf rankings — five spots below the USMNT — the two nations consistently produce compelling encounters. Since their first meeting over 70 years ago in 1954 World Cup qualifying, the sides have traded victories regularly. The Americans have claimed eight wins across 19 total meetings, while Haiti has won six.
The USMNT has won the last three meetings with Haiti, each by a single-goal margin, going back to 2015. Haiti has not beaten the USMNT since 1973, though they have managed to hold the Stars and Stripes to a draw on five separate occasions since then.
