The defender is adjusting to life with a new club and is confident his move will not hinder his status with the Stars and Stripes.
TIJUANA, Mexico — Michael Orozco is excited to begin the Liga MX Apertura with new club Tijuana and is confident the players around him will help boost his stock with the United States national team.
"I was very close to going to the Gold Cup. They let me out to adapt with my new team, which is different," he said at a news conference Thursday introducing the club's new signings. "We're trying to fight for bigger things. I'm going to get to the national team with the help of all my teammates and the effort that I put on the field."
