Weah, Mendez and Richards headline U.S. Under-20 World Cup squad

Tim Weah will be leading the U.S. Under-20 national team at the Under-20 World Cup, but Josh Sargent won't be joining him there.

Weah headlines the 21-man roster chosen by Tab Ramos to represent the United States at the Under-20 World Cup in Poland later this month, joining Freiburg midfielder Alex Mendez and Bayern Munich defender Chris Richards among the top names on the squad.

Fourteen members of the U.S. team that won the Concacaf Under-20 Championships in November made the squad, with Weah among the players who did not take part in that tournament.
