FRISCO, Texas (April 16, 2023) – FC Dallas Homegrown Paxton Pomykal has been added to the U.S. men’s national team camp roster ahead of the upcoming Allstate Continental Clásico against Mexico on April 19 in Glendale, Arizona. Pomykal will join fellow Homegrown Jesús Ferreira in the preparation for the inaugural competition.
FC Dallas forward Paul Arriola, who was originally called into the April camp, has withdrawn as a precaution after experiencing tightness in his right hamstring.
Pomykal, 23, earns his second 2023 USMNT call-up after participating in the 2023 January Camp. The FC Dallas midfielder made his senior-team debut in a 1-1 draw against Uruguay on Sept. 10, 2019. Pomykal has appeared in seven matches this season, recording one assist in 562 minutes played. He played a career-high 35 MLS games during the 2022 season, which included 31 starts and two playoff matches. The Dallas native also recorded five assists in 2,449 minutes last year, matching his season-high total of 2019.
The Allstate Continental Clásico is an annual competition that will feature the U.S. Men's National Team hosting a top-tier opponent from North, Central or South America. This is the first edition of the Allstate Continental Clásico and will kick off at 9PM CT on HBO Max and Peacock.
