dos Santos called up to U.S. U-15 team for Argentina camp

United States Under-15 Boy’s National Team coach John Hackworth has named a roster of 20 players that includes Philadelphia Union Academy U-14 goalkeeper Carlos dos Santos for a training camp in Argentina.

Dos Santos is one of two goalkeepers on the roster; Alexander Budnik of Sockers FC is the other. The U-15 team will play three matches while in camp, facing Uruguay on June 8, Argentina on June 10 and Paraguay on June 12.

The Philadelphia native will be joining the U-15 BNT for the first time after recently traveling to Carson, California for the U.S. Soccer Futures Camp. He was one of six goalkeepers at the camp for players born in 2000 and 2001.

Dos Santos, 14, has played 13 games, starting 11 for the Union Academy U-14s in Development Academy play this season. He started 18 games and appeared in 21 for the team last season.

The U.S. U-15 team most recently competed at and won the 12th Tournament delle Nazioni in Italy in late April with dos Santos’ teammate Rayshaun McGann on the roster.
