Arsenal loanee could face more USMNT disappointment after picking up calf injury

Auston Trusty's chances of a first USMNT call-up have received a blow with the defender set to miss the next two weeks due to injury.

Trusty, who is currently on loan at Birmingham City from Arsenal, missed Blues' 1-0 defeat to Luton Town at the weekend, with manager John Eustace confirming why after the match. “I think Auston will be a couple of weeks, unfortunately, for him.

"He has been outstanding. He has played 70 games in the calendar year. We were pushing him, as we were pushing Krystian, Dion [Sanderson], Troy [Deeney] through the barriers and, ultimately, something is going to break. But, hopefully, it won’t be too long for Trusty or Krystian.”
