Sixteen-year-old Philadelphia Union midfielder Cavan Sullivan is reportedly slated to receive his first call-up to the United States men’s national team (USMNT). According to reports, Sullivan will be included in the roster for the team's upcoming series of friendly matches scheduled for late September and early October against Chile, Peru, Mexico, and Canada.

While the official roster announcement from USMNT head coach Mauricio Pochettino is expected on Thursday morning, sources familiar with the team's plans have indicated that the young talent will be part of the squad. Sullivan, who made history by turning professional at the age of 14, has been widely considered one of the most promising prospects in American soccer. The news of his inclusion was first reported by ESPN’s Jeff Carlisle before being corroborated by other outlets.

There is currently no official comment from U.S. Soccer regarding the roster composition, as the organization typically waits for the formal announcement to confirm player selections. The call-up represents a significant milestone for Sullivan, who has been a focal point of development discussions within the Philadelphia Union organization and the broader Major League Soccer landscape. If confirmed, his inclusion would mark one of the youngest call-ups in recent USMNT history, signaling a potential shift toward integrating younger talent into the senior national team setup under Pochettino's leadership.
