The Red Stars will have even better representation at the upcoming SheBelieves Cup than the strong contingent fans were already excited about. On Monday, U.S. Soccer announced that Red Stars defender Casey Krueger will be part of the USWNT squad to face Argentina, Brazil and Canada later this month in Orlando.
Krueger (nee. Short) replaces Alana Cook after her club, Paris Saint-Germain, exercised their right under current French COVID-19 restrictions to forbid her from traveling. Krueger joins teammates Tierna Davidson, Julie Ertz and Alyssa Naeher in the 23-player squad, as well as Mallory Pugh who will be training with the team.
