Sergiño Dest called up by USMNT for March friendlies

FC Barcelona defender Sergiño Dest has been called up by the US national team for their upcoming friendlies against Jamaica and Northern Ireland. USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter named the blaugrana right back in a 26 man squad for the two fixtures, the first of which will take place against the Carribeans on 25 March in Wiener Neustadt, Austria. The meeting with the Northern Irish will be played in Belfast on 28 March. 

Although born and raised in the Netherlands, Dest’s father is a US citizen and that is the country he has opted to represent at international level. He already has five caps with the USMNT, starting with a friendly against Mexico in September of 2019.
