For the first men’s World Cup on home soil in over 30 years as well as the summer of America’s 250th birthday, the U.S. men’s national team will look every bit the part of a true American as it chases history. The squad will don an ultra-patriotic, red-and-white striped home jersey, contrasted by a sleek, dark blue away jersey that includes subtle, monochromatic stars. The USMNT has lofty ambitions of a deep run this summer, potentially even to the semifinal round, hoping the spirits of the home crowd will carry them through. Fortunately, the Stars and Stripes have a winnable group stage, facing Group D foes Paraguay, Australia and Türkiye beginning in less than two weeks.Mauricio Pochettino’s squad now officially knows what numbers they will wear this summer on the back of their patriotic fits, led by none other than the superstar owner of the team’s No. 10 jersey.

U.S. Soccer poster player and superstar forward Christian Pulisic retains his No. 10 jersey, a number he inherited in the fall of 2016 at just 17 years old and one previously donned by USMNT legend and co-leading goalscorer Landon Donovan. Then-manager Jürgen Klinsmann gifted Pulisic the number, recognizing the potential the youngster possessed and his great likelihood of becoming the future of the team. Since then, Pulisic has been named U.S. Soccer Male Player of the Year four times and is largely anticipated to be behind any success the U.S. achieve this summer on soccer’s grandest stage.Star midfielder Weston McKennie retains No. 8, a jersey he has had since he was 19 years old in the 2018–19 season, inheriting the number long-term from USMNT legend and co-leading goalscorer Clint Dempsey. Despite highly anticipated to be the second-string goalkeeper behind No. 24 Matt Freese at the tournament, Matt Turner will retain the iconic No. 1 jersey, having worn it since the 2020–21 season, including at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as the key starter between the sticks.Group Stage FixturesUnited States vs. Paraguay—Friday, June 12 (9 p.m. ET)United States vs. Australia—Friday, June 19 (3 p.m. ET)Türkiye vs. United States—Thursday, June 25 (10 p.m. ET)What’s Next for the USMNT?Christian Pulisic finally ended his goal-scoring drought. | Omar Vega/USSF/Getty ImagesThe USMNT has a hefty challenge immediately in front of them: an international friendly against European powerhouses, No. 10 globally-ranked Germany, on Saturday in Chicago.
