United States Soccer has announced a scheduled training camp for the men's team in Qatar has been postponed because of the "developing situation" in the Middle East.

The federation released a statement on its website, saying it will look to rearrange the team's training camp plans as a result:

"Due to the developing situation in the region, U.S. Soccer has decided to postpone traveling to Qatar for the Men's National Team's scheduled January training camp. In the meantime, we are working on alternative arrangements in preparation for the match against Costa Rica on February 1 at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California.
