USMNT's Folarin Balogun, Johnny Cardoso and Tim Weah out for friendlies

Monaco forward Folarin Balogun, Real Betis midfielder Johnny Cardoso, and Juventus midfielder Tim Weah have been ruled out of a pair of upcoming friendlies for the U.S. men's national team because of injury, U.S. Soccer announced on Sunday.

The trio have been replaced by Olympique Lyon midfielder Tanner Tessmann, CF Monterrey forward Brandon Vazquez and Club America winger Alejandro Zendejas.

Balogun appeared to suffer a shoulder injury after scoring in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Rennes, a result that put Monaco top of Ligue 1.
