Josh Sargent Injury: US Star Forward’s Copa America Hopes in Jeopardy

The match will be held at Landover, Maryland, followed by a game against Brazil in Orlando, Florida before the Copa Ameria tournament kicks off.

The 24-year-old from O’Fallon, Missouri netted 16 goals in 26 league appearances for Norwich City in England’s second tier this season. However, Sargent finished the season dealing with foot swelling.
“He’s not going to be fit to play in the Colombia game. We’ll have to see if he makes it for the Brazil game, and then we’ll have to make a decision if he makes it on the Copa America roster,” U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter said on Friday.
