Pulisic, McKennie chosen for last US pre-World Cup matches
Chelsea striker Christian Pulisic and Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie were among 26 players named by US coach Greg Berhalter on Wednesday for his team's last pre-World Cup friendlies.
The Americans will face World Cup-bound Japan on September 23 in Dusseldorf, Germany, and meet Saudi Arabia on September 27 in Murcia, Spain.
Berhalter will welcome his squad to training camp this coming weekend in Cologne, Germany.
"As we approach the World Cup, this is another opportunity for us to take a step forward as a group," Berhalter said.
"We have a strong roster and can use these games as a measuring stick against World Cup opponents as we continue to gain valuable experience ahead of going to Qatar."
The United States were drawn into Group B in Qatar against England, Wales and Iran.
