USA to play January friendly vs. Costa Rica in Orlando

[ad_1]

The United States men's national team on Tuesday added a friendly vs. Costa Rica for Jan. 22 in Orlando as part of the January training camp.

Last month, the USMNT set a Jan. 18 friendly vs. Venezuela for Ft. Lauderdale. Neither match falls within the FIFA international window, meaning the U.S. roster will likely be comprised of MLS players that are taking part in the USMNT's annual January camp, also set for Orlando.

The January camp has historically proven to be a launching pad for several USMNT careers. From the U.S. squad at Qatar 2022, nine players earned their first or second cap during a January camp match, including captain Tyler Adams, forward Brenden Aaronson, defenders Walker Zimmerman and Tim Ream and starting goalkeeper Matt Turner.
