United goalkeeper Bill Hamid has been named to Bruce Arena's USMNT roster for the upcoming CONCACAF Gold Cup. Hamid is one of 16 MLS-based players to make the squad, including all three goalkeepers: Brad Guzan and Sean Johnson.
United's first-ever Homegrown Player has two caps with the U.S. Men's National Team, including one shutout. He made his international debut against Venezuela on Jan. 21, 2012. He most recently was named to the squad for a friendly against New Zealand (at RFK Stadium) last October.
The U.S. are in Group B with Panama, Nicaragua and Martinique. They open the tournament against Panama in Nashville on July 8, play Martinique in Tampa on July 12 and close the group stage against Nicaragua in Cleveland on July 15.
The U.S. will begin reporting to training camp in Nashville on Sunday. The Americans will play a pre-tournament tune-up against Ghana on Saturday at Pratt & Whitney Stadium in East Hartford, Connecticut (4:45 PM ET | ESPN, UniMas and UDN).
