The U.S. men's national team has increasingly become a hub for dual-national talent, thanks to the country's diverse population and global diaspora.

However, while many current dual nationals playing for the USMNT like Sergiño Dest, Folarin Balogun, Antonee Robinson and Johnny have chosen to don the red, white, and blue at the senior level, several high-profile players have opted to represent other nations despite their eligibility for the U.S.

United States' Sergino Dest will miss the Copa America after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), with the defender confirming he will undergo surgery soon.

Dest, who has spent this season on loan at PSV Eindhoven from Barcelona, suffered the injury late last month while training with the Dutch club.

"Unfortunately I've torn my ACL, I will have an operation soon and will try to come back as soon as possible to my top level. It will be a difficult time for me," Dest said in a video posted on social media.

United States men’s national team fans received devastating news that star right back Sergiño Dest is expected to miss this summer’s Copa América after suffering a major knee injury.

PSV announced that Dest will miss the rest of the season with The Athletic reporting the American will be out nine months and might not return for a year.

DORTMUND — Jadon Sancho and Marco Reus were on target as Borussia Dortmund secured a nervous 2-0 win over PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday and a Champions League last-eight place for the first time in three years with a 3-1 aggregate victory.

Luuk de Jong could have sent the game into extra time when he was left free in front of goal but instead of tapping in, he sent the ball wildly over the bar in stoppage time.
