NEW YORK — U.S. Soccer officially unveiled its roster for the 2026 World Cup on Tuesday, with Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie highlighting the host nation’s 26-man squad for this summer.The players were informed via email on Friday, and the entire roster was revealed by The Athletic and The Guardian on Saturday. But the players still gathered at Pier 17 in Manhattan with the Brooklyn Bridge as their backdrop for what was supposed to be the grand unveiling and yet was still a televised, patriotic celebration and sendoff for one of the tournament’s three cohosts.Among the other headliners on the squad are Gio Reyna, whose place in the squad has been debated for some time due to his lack of club playing time and past baggage within the team; and Chris Richards, a defender who missed out on the 2022 tournament due to injury.Richards was the only member of this year’s 26-man squad not present at Tuesday’s event; he is still with Crystal Palace, his English club, preparing for Wednesday’s UEFA Conference League final — even though he is recovering from an ankle sprain and might not participate.Richards, who submitted a video from London so he could take part in at least some of the festivities, will join up with the squad later this week in Georgia, where it will begin World Cup preparations at U.S. Soccer’s new national training center just south of Atlanta.
