Marko Mitrovic’s 18-player roster for the 2024 Summer Olympics is set.
Djordje Mihailovic, Miles Robinson, and Kevin Paredes headline the U.S. men’s Olympic team roster for the trip to Paris, France later this July. Both Mihailovic and Robinson are joined by Nashville SC defender Walker Zimmerman as the three players over the ages of 23-years-old.
Reigning MLS Cup winner Patrick Schulte and former Chicago Fire homegrown Gaga Slonina will compete for the No. 1 job at goalkeeper. Josh Atencio, John Pulskamp, Johan Gomez, and Jacob Davis have been chosen as the four alternate players on the roster.
Mihailovic, Slonina, Zimmerman and midfielder Gianluca Busio have been part of the senior USMNT roster during a competitive tournament. Zimmerman brings the most experience to the group, totaling over 40 international caps to date.
Busio and fellow midfielder Tanner Tessmann enjoyed Serie A promotion this past season with their club, Venezia. Griffin Yow and Taylor Booth set new career-highs in goals last season with Westerlo and FC Utrecht respectively.
The United States will face Thierry Henry’s France in its opening group stage match on July 24 before also taking on New Zealand on July 27 and Guinea on July 30.
