Orlando City SC defender Tommy Redding has been called up to the United States U-20 Men’s National Team for the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Korea Republic from May 20 to June 11.
The call-up follows Redding’s exceptional performance at the CONCACAF Championship in March. Redding started six matches and played 519 minutes to lead the U.S. U-20s to their first ever CONCACAF Championship.
Redding, who grew up in Oviedo, Fla., became Orlando City’s first Homegrown signing in December 2014. With seven appearances and six starts on the season, Redding earned a spot on MLS’ Team of the Week Bench following City’s shutout victory against the New York Red Bulls on April 9.
