The U.S. men’s soccer team is chasing its first Olympic medal at Paris 2024, aiming to add to the four gold medals won by the women’s team. However, they will have to pursue this goal without their marquee player, Christian Pulisic.
The reason why Christian Pulisic will not be present at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games is because only three players over the age of 23 can be part of the team and Pulisic is already in Italy with his club getting ready for the pre-season.
The United States’ roster for the Paris 2024 Olympics includes three overage players: defenders Walker Zimmerman (31) and Miles Robinson (27), and attacking midfielder Djordje Mihailovic (25).
Zimmerman, a key figure for Nashville SC, brings a wealth of experience and leadership to the backline. Robinson, a standout for FC Cincinnati, is known for his athleticism and defensive prowess. Mihailovic, currently with the Colorado Rapids, adds creativity and playmaking ability to the midfield.
