Red Bulls phenom Julian Hall could soon be cap-tied to USMNT — thanks to FIFA rules

Julian Hall could become tied to the United States men’s national team if he appears in an upcoming Concacaf Nations League match against Haiti. The 18-year-old is also eligible to represent Poland, so an appearance in the official competition would settle his international future for now under FIFA rules.

Hall scored three goals and made an assist in four friendlies after his first senior US call-up in September and October. He said then that he remained open to Poland; coach Mauricio Pochettino said Hall had been excited to play for the US. The Haiti matches are scheduled for 14 November in Miami and 17 November in Cincinnati, while Hall has scored 16 goals and provided four assists in 34 matches for the Red Bulls this season.
