Sounders Synder Brunell and Stuart Hawkins receive US Men’s National Team Youth call-ups

Sounders FC players Snyder Brunell and Stuart Hawkins have been called-up to the U.S. U-19 and U-20 Men’s Youth National Teams, respectively, for the June FIFA window. The youth callups come days after Cristian Roldan was named to the final USMNT senior roster for the FIFA World Cup 2026™.

Brunell, 19, joins the U.S. U-19 Men’s Youth National Team for a camp at the Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer Training Center in Fayetteville, Georgia. The camp runs from June 1-9, with a friendly scheduled against Japan on June 9. The midfielder previously joined the U-19s in March for a camp and friendlies in Alicante, Spain. Brunell also played for the U-18 MYNT in the UEFA Friendship Cup in Nyon, Switzerland, helping the U.S. win the title in a shootout victory over Portugal. Brunell has made 17 appearances (12 starts) for Seattle this year in all competitions, tallying one assist.
