Chris Richards (Center-back) – A staple of defense, expected to anchor the back line

Tim Ream (Center-back) – Experienced and reliable, brings leadership to defense.

Max Arfsten (Left-back) – A youthful presence likely to support from the flank.

Midfielders

Tyler Adams (Central midfield) – The midfield lynchpin, offering stability and control.

Luca de la Torre (Central midfield) – A ball-mover with vision, rounding out a balanced double pivot.

Attacking Midfield & Wings

Tim Weah (Right-wing) – Reunited with the squad after a summer break. Weah brings dynamism to the wing.

Diego Luna  (Central attacking midfield) – Creative spark with ability to unlock tight defenses. Luna shone at the Gold Cup.

Christian Pulisic (Left wing) – Returning from rest, the talisman returns to lead the attack.

Striker

Josh Sargent – The likely center-forward, riding form and leading the line. Sargent has started the EFL Championship campaign on fire.
