<p>Playing for top clubs means playing in the biggest tournaments, and no tournament is bigger than the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UEFA Champions League</a>. For a long time if two or three American players participated in the Champions League it was a lot, but <strong>this season, a record number of <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/us-national-team-t95392" target="_blank" rel="noopener">U.S. National Team</a> players will take the field in this prestigious cup competition.</strong></p>
<p>In a unique case, there are even three American players in one Champions League group. Not only are there American players but also American coaches as <strong>Jesse Marsch will coach in his second consecutive Champions League.</strong></p>
<p><strong>A total of ten<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/soccer/the-usmnt-european-based-starting-11-20200930-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">USMNT players</a> will suit up for Champions League action this season</strong> and one coach will be on the sidelines, we have the list of each American player and their possibilities to play in European soccer’s top cup competition.</p>

<h2>USMNT Players in Champions League Squads</h2>
<h2>Group A</h2>
<h2>Chris Richards – Bayern Munich</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p>Richards is coming along slowly for the current champions and will look to get meaningful minutes during the year. The fact that he is on the squad can only help his development. <strong>His chances of playing are slim at least for now.</strong></p>
<h2>Jesse Marsch coaches Red Bull Salzburg</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Jesse Marsch" data-height="411" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:411" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Jesse Marsch" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201001_BUS_164685_jesse_marsch_crop1601583848309.jpg_21146372_5e7a0bff.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=411" width="740" height="411"></figure><figcaption>    Jesse Marsch will coach in his second Champions League.

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Steffen has already played in a few cup games for Man City </strong>this season, and while he is not the starter, don’t be surprised if he gets some minutes in the Champions League group stage.</p>

(Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Like Pulisic, Reyna is coming on strong for Borussia Dortmund, this will only add to the experience he has gained, and it could be a coming-out party for Gio Reyna at such a high level.</p>

<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Ethan Horvath" data-height="411" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:411" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Ethan Horvath" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201001_BUS_164685_ethan_horvath_crop1601584437252.jpg_21146372_ab7be264.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=411" width="740" height="411"></figure><figcaption>    Ethan Horvath will most likely be on the bench for Brugge.
