Chicago Fire FC and U.S. Soccer have announced the selection of four players from the Chicago Fire Academy for the U.S. U-15 Men's Youth National Team's upcoming domestic training camp. Finn McCraney, Christopher Morales, Jason Nemo, and Robert Turdean will participate in the camp scheduled to take place in Phoenix, Arizona from February 24 to March 3, 2025.
This marks the first training camp under new head coach Ross Brady. Brady previously led the Chicago Fire Academy U-15 team before assuming his current role. The U.S. team is set to play two matches against Mexico in Mesa, Arizona on February 28 and March 2. These games represent the initial international competitions for players born in 2010.
For Turdean and Nemo, this call-up represents their fourth opportunity with the national team following their participation in a previous camp held in Fayetteville, Georgia in November 2024. During that same camp, McCraney made his debut with the U-15 USMYNT. Morales has joined these teammates twice before, with his most recent involvement occurring at an October 2024 camp also located in Fayetteville.
These selections make Chicago Fire FC the Major League Soccer club with the highest number of representatives on this particular roster.
