Josh Sargent sidelined for friendly against Colombia, could also miss Copa America

Joshua Sargent, a 24-year-old forward from O’Fallon, Missouri, may not be able to compete in the upcoming friendly match against Colombia on June 8, 2024. Sargent, who scored an impressive 16 goals in 26 league games with Norwich in England’s League Championship, faced challenges at the end of the season due to foot swelling.

United States coach Gregg Berhalter revealed that Sargent would miss the Colombia game and his availability for the Brazil game is also uncertain. A decision will be made on whether Sargent will be included in the Copa America roster based on his fitness. The U.S. team is set to face Brazil after Colombia in a series of matches.

The team’s schedule includes first-round matches against Bolivia, Panama, and Uruguay in the Copa America tournament. In addition to Sargent, the U.S. roster includes forwards Folarin Balogun, Ricardo Pepi, and Haji Wright who will be ready to step in if needed. The team is focused on preparing for the upcoming matches and making decisions based on players’ health and readiness.
