Tension is rising around Christian Pulisic’s absence from the 2025 Concacaf Gold Cup roster. The AC Milan star opted out of the tournament citing fatigue after a long European season. While Mauricio Pochettino respected his decision, some former players, including Landon Donovan, weren’t as understanding.

Donovan criticized the commitment of some USMNT players, suggesting that those unwilling to prioritize playing for their country should decline call-ups. He emphasized the importance of national pride and urged players to show greater dedication to the national team.
