Agyemang, 25, sustained the injury Monday while playing for Derby County against Stoke City in England. He landed awkwardly after leaping to challenge for the ball and left on a stretcher in the 41st minute of a 2-0 win.  “Everyone at Derby County is fully behind Patrick at this difficult time and will continue to support him every step of the way,” the team said in a news release on Tuesday.  “As a result of this injury, Patrick will unfortunately miss this summer’s FIFA World Cup. At this stage it would be wrong to put a timeline on his recovery.”   Agyemang played in both USMNT friendlies last month in losses against Portugal and Belgium, scoring a goal in the latter. He has recorded six goals in 14 caps for the U.S. since making his debut in January 2025.  His absence from the World Cup is a blow to coach Mauricio Pochettino’s roster, which must be finalized by May 30. The U.S. plays its first game in group play on June 12 at Inglewood, Calif., against Paraguay.  Agyemang will also miss the last five regular-season matches for Derby County, which is currently two spots out of the playoffs in England’s second tier.  –Field Level Media    #Deadspin #USMNT #striker #Patrick #Agyemang #Achilles #World #Cup

The United States got off to a tremendous start at the 2026 World Cup, with a dominant performance against Paraguay in a 4-1 win on Friday. The team was dynamic, creative, and delivered perhaps its best performance yet at a World Cup.

However, there is concern about the status of star forward Christian Pulisic.

Pulisic was replaced at halftime against Paraguay, after he was kicked in the left calf, reaggravating a training injury he picked up in the days before the World Cup. Following the match, Pulisic downplayed the injury.

“I just got a bit of a kick first half, so I’m really hoping that it’s nothing,” Pulisic told Fox Sports. “Taking a little bit of precaution today, but I’m hoping I’ll be fine the next few days.

“Just the back of my leg, my calf area. But I’ve had similar things before, and I’m staying positive. I don’t think it’s anything at all.”

The next USMNT match is against Australia on Friday, but there are expectations around the team that Pulisic will be available.

Teammate Tyler Adams as well as manager Mauricio Pochettino were among those offering positive updates.

“Christian will be ready, everyone. Let’s relax,” Adams said before the team’s training session on Monday.

“I think that he picked up a knock a few days before the game, and I think he got kicked in the same spot again during the game. And when you go in at halftime, things obviously get tight within the 15, 20 minute break. But he’ll be fine.”

“Good,” was how Pochettino described the USMNT’s status.

On Tuesday, Tim Weah offered an update of his own. “He looks normal, he’s fit,” said the USMNT winger. “He works with the trainers on the side, but I think he’ll be ready for the game.”

Officially, Pulisic is listed as “day-to-day:”

According to an update from Jenny Taft during FOX Sports’ coverage of the France-Senegal match on Tuesday, Pulisic worked with trainers again off to the side on Tuesday, ahead of Friday’s match against Australia.

Update (Wednesday): Here is the latest updated on Pulisic, as he remains officially “day-to-day” according to the USSF:
