A fourth Seattle Sounders player has been called up by their senior national team. With Cristian Roldan and Jordan Morris already called in for the US Men’s National Team for the January Camp, and Nouhou at the African Cup of Nations with Cameroon, now Yeimar Gómez Andrade joins Colombia’s roster for a friendly against Honduras on Jan. 16.
Gómez Andrade received his first-ever national team call-up in November when he joined Colombia for a pair of World Cup Qualifiers in the absence of Yerry Mina. This time around it’s another health concern that has made way for Gómez Andrade to join the squad, as Atlético Nacional midfielder Sebastián Gómez is unable to participate due to a positive Covid test.
