What happened. Cavan Sullivan has been called up to the United States senior squad for the first time by head coach Mauricio Pochettino. The 16-year-old is one of 13 players who could make their international debut in the upcoming friendlies.

• Sullivan could become the fourth-youngest USMNT player if he features.
• Freddy Adu still holds the record as the youngest USMNT player.
• Pochettino's 28-man squad features a notably youthful group.

Sullivan's potential debut would mark a significant step in his young career and highlight Pochettino's focus on youth.
