U.S. Men's Olympic Soccer Team release official 18-man roster

U.S. Men’s Olympic Soccer Team is here.

Head coach Marko Mitrović has defined the 18 players called-up for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.

The squad ready to take on the first Summer Games for the United States since 2008 has been composed of young talents from MLS, Europe, as well as proved national team players ready to contribute their expertise.

While the U.S. women's team can bring a full squad of 'professional' players, the men's Olympic tournament imposes a roster restriction to players who are 23 years old or younger, with a few exceptions.

Every national team is allowed to include three overage players inside the roster, who are typically of great experience.

As it had been previewed in the 25-man preliminary list, Mitrović has called up USMNT and Nashville SC defender Walker Zimmerman, along with FC Cincinnati’s Miles Robinson and Colorado Rapids’ Djordje Mihalovic.
