CHICAGO (June 15, 2019) – U.S. Men’s National Team midfielder Duane Holmes has been forced to withdraw from the roster for the 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup due to injury. Holmes reaggravated a left quadriceps strain which he suffered prior to the end of the league season with Derby County.

Chicago Fire midfielder Djordje Mihailovic has been added to the 23-player roster and will report to Minneapolis on June 15. Mihailovic earned all three of his caps in 2019, scoring in his debut on Jan. 27 in the 3-0 win against Panama.

Per tournament regulations, a player may be removed from the roster due to injury up to 24 hours prior to a team’s opening match. The replacement must come from the 40-player provisional roster, which was due no later than May 16 to Concacaf.

The team opens play in the 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup against Guyana on June 18 at Allianz Field, a venue that set the record for the fastest sell-out in tournament history (10 p.m. ET; FS1, UniMas & UDN).

Following the Guyana match, the U.S. moves east to face Trinidad & Tobago on Saturday, June 22 at FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland before closing group play against Panama on Wednesday, June 26 at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kan.
