When the Seattle Sounders open 2022 training camp next week, they’ll be doing it without several players. Jordan Morris (United States), Cristian Roldan (United States) and Nouhou (Cameroon) have all been called into their respective national teams.
The United States’ camp will run from Jan. 7-21 and will feature just 19 players, all of whom are based in MLS. That will serve as a bit of a World Cup qualifying warmup as the USMNT has three matches between Jan. 27-Feb. 2. Assuming they’re given some time off, it’s entirely possible that Roldan and Morris wouldn’t rejoin the Sounders until a week before their Concacaf Champions League opener on Feb.
