Trinity Rodman returns to USWNT roster for January camp, four first-time call-ups included
The U.S. plays Paraguay and Chile in two January friendlies.
Trinity Rodman has returned to the United States women’s national team roster for January’s international friendlies.
Emma Hayes has also handed debut call-ups to four players for January’s camp, with Seattle Reign forward Maddie Dahlien, 21, and midfielder Sally Menti, 23, Portland Thorns forward Reilyn Turner, 23 and North Carolina Courage midfielder Riley Jackson, 20, all included in a senior camp for the first time.
Thorns midfielder Sam Coffey, however, was not included on the 22-player roster.
Due to January’s friendlies against Paraguay and Chile taking place outside of a FIFA window, Hayes has named a roster consisting entirely of National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) players, meaning U.S. regulars such as Lindsey Heaps, Lily Yohannes, Alyssa Thompson, Naomi Girma and Catarina Macario are not included.
Additionally, Gotham FC’s participation in the inaugural FIFA Champions Cup in Europe means none of the club’s players were named on this roster.
The call-up for Rodman, 23, means she is due to join up with the USWNT for the first time since April 2025. The forward has featured just once for the U.S. since the 2024 Olympic gold medal match against Brazil in the summer of 2024 after injury disrupted her 2025 season. She withdrew from the October after suffering a medial collateral ligament (MCL) sprain, and Hayes said November’s camp had come “too soon” for her.
Rodman entered free agency during the offseason, with the NWSL rejecting the Washington Spirit’s proposed multimillion-dollar offer to keep the U.S. international in December.
First-time call-ups Dahlien and Jackson, meanwhile, were both on the roster for the January 2025 futures camp, having played key roles as the U.S. finished third at the 2024 Under-20 World Cup.
“Our roster presents opportunity for the coaching staff to evaluate players and for some NWSL players we haven’t seen as much in the National Team environment, as well as for some first-time call-ups, to show they can contribute in 2026, 2027 or beyond,” Hayes said in a press release.
“We’re looking forward to having a few more training days than usual in this camp as well as getting two matches to see this part of the player pool in game action and hopefully add even more depth and options for our 2026 SheBelieves Cup roster.”
The U.S. plays Paraguay at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Calif. on January 24 before facing Chile at Harder Stadium in Santa Barbara on January 27.
