USWNT camp minus England-based stars, features top NWSL players

European-based stars won't be present when the United States women's national team holds its first training camp since March, but Brazilian-born Catarina Macario's place on the field marks an important step in the emerging star's journey to represent her adopted country.

The national team will hold a 10-day camp in the Denver area beginning on Oct. 18. The U.S. has not gathered as a team since the SheBelieves Cup in March. The U.S. defeated England, Japan and Spain to win that tournament, which was completed days before the sports world shut down in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

The October camp will be held in a bubble-type environment similar to the NWSL Challenge Cup this summer. Players, coaches and staff will operate out of a hotel in the Denver area and be tested multiple times before arrival, upon arrival, and every two days during the camp.

"Getting the national team back together brings us relief and excitement, and I'm thankful for all the work done behind the scenes to make this happen, and make it happen safely for all the players and staff," U.S. coach Vlatko Andonovski said in a statement. "We're going to be smart and efficient in how we conduct this camp, but we know that the Olympics will be coming fast once the calendar turns to 2021, so we have to make as much progress as we can during the time we have in Denver."

That progress will have to be made without Tobin Heath, Rose Lavelle, Sam Mewis, Alex Morgan and Christen Press, the quintet of World Cup winners who signed with English teams in the Women's Super League teams this fall. With no U.S. games scheduled, their club teams were not obligated to release them for international duty and the travel and associated quarantine restrictions would have made their participation impractical regardless.

"For this camp, it just did not make sense for the players in Europe to leave their club environments, where they are getting quality training games, as they are just starting to get settled," Andonovski said. "But this opens up the important opportunity for other players to step up and show if they can contribute to the national team during our run to the Olympics."

Also missing from Andonovski's camp roster are Carli Lloyd, who has not played in the NWSL's limited fall schedule while recovering from an injury, and Megan Rapinoe, who opted out of the NWSL fall series. U.S. Soccer cited injury concerns on Rapinoe's part for her not traveling to Colorado. Neither Lloyd nor Rapinoe has played since the SheBelieves Cup.

A regular starter in the U.S. World Cup title run a year ago, midfielder Julie Ertz will not be part of the camp. Ertz, who also opted out of the NWSL fall series, cited a family commitment.

But in addition to the inclusion of many NWSL players who impressed during the limited opportunities available to U.S.-based players in a season reduced to the Challenge Cup and fall series, the roster includes Stanford senior Macario. Born in Brazil and still working through the application process for U.S. citizenship, she previously trained with the U.S. under-23 national team and played in several preseason exhibitions against NWSL teams.

The two-time reigning Hermann Trophy winner as college soccer's best player was a heavy favorite to become the first three-time winner of that award until the pandemic disrupted the college season. With 63 career goals, she entered this season as NCAA active leader by more than 20 goals. She also held a double-digit lead as the active leader in career assists.

Macario moved to the United States with her father and older brother when she was 11 years old to allow both children access to better educational and athletic opportunities. Their mother, a doctor, continues to live and work in Brazil. Macario has long stated a desire to play for the U.S.

FIFA recently amended its regulations for naturalized citizens seeking to represent their new country in competition. Previously, a naturalized citizen had to wait five years beyond their 18th birthday to play for their new national team unless they obtained a waiver from FIFA stipulating that, among other criteria, the player moved to the new country for non-football reasons. Danish international and former Portland Thorns forward Nadia Nadim received such a waiver after her family left Afghanistan when she was a child and sought asylum in Denmark.

The amended regulations change when the clock starts on the residency requirement. For someone like Macario, who moved to the United States as a minor (but after her 10th birthday), the five-year requirement is counted from the time of her arrival, as opposed to her 18th birthday. Thus Macario, who turned 21 earlier this month, will already meet FIFA's residency requirement once she becomes a U.S. citizen.

The other notable change in the FIFA regulations was in the wording related to approval from the organization. Previously, the waiver depended on the person moving to the new country for non-football reasons. The new regulations say only that a player should not have moved to a new country "for the purpose of participating for its representative teams," a more narrowly-drawn prohibition suggestive of direct recruitment by a soccer federation.

Macario, whose brother studied film at USC and who herself eschewed an opportunity taken by multiple teammates to leave Stanford early for professional soccer in order to complete her degree, already had a strong case that her move was for reasons beyond sport. The new FIFA regulations appear to make her eligibility all but a formality once she obtains citizenship.

Macario told ESPN earlier this fall that she still hopes to complete the citizenship process this year. Her application is caught in a pandemic-related backlog, but her paperwork is complete and she is awaiting word on when she will be allowed to take the citizenship test.

The training camp roster includes a number of players with national team experience who are looking to get back in the regular rotation, such as NWSL summer and fall standout Kristie Mewis of the Houston Dash. It also includes young players who may benefit from the extra year of development and auditions ahead of Olympic roster competition, such as Portland Thorns rookie Sophia Smith and Washington Spirit rookie Ashley Sanchez and current collegians Macario, Stanford defender Naomi Girma, UCLA forward Mia Fishel and Florida State midfielder Jaelin Howell.

Unlike some U.S. national teams, such as in softball, Andonovski had not named an Olympic roster prior to that event's postponement, so there is no issue of carrying over the same group of players to next summer.

If 'nobody cares about women's football', how come Man Utd shirts of famous female imports are outselling male players?

The arrival of American pair Christen Press and Tobin Heath has seen a huge increase in sales of shirts bearing their names


Christen Press has been a big draw for Manchester United

The arrival of American pair Christen Press and Tobin Heath at Manchester United had been considered a savvy move by manager Casey Stoney, for all the firepower they can bring up front for the ambitious side. But their commercial power had been proved for the club before they even made their respective debuts.

The news this week that sales of shirts with the names Press and Heath outsold any of the United male players for the first three days after they were signed, raised many eyebrows. It did not happen in a quiet month of shirt sales either, it happened during the summer transfer window when clubs were splashing ads for their latest kit range in fans' faces daily. And still, the women were briefly outselling the men. Any suggestion that those numbers may be a reflection of United supporters' dissatisfaction with their men's side are neither here nor there, as down the road at Manchester City there was a similar story occurring.

In September, a mere couple of weeks into the Women's Super League season, City's women's team had already surpassed the total number of shirt sales achieved during the entire 2019-20 campaign. Rose Lavelle, who joined the club in August along with United States team-mate Sam Mewis, is in the top 10 in shirt sales across the whole club – including the men's squad – and Mewis, along with Lucy Bronze, was also in the top 20. In the first week of sales for the Americans' shirts, 61 per cent sold were purchased in men's sizes.

The correlation is not difficult to see, and serves as vindication for clubs who hyped up and milked the arrival of their world champions to England's top division. The profile harnessed by these American players, as well as Alex Morgan who subsequently joined Tottenham, across the pond and worldwide has been much-discussed since they made their landmark moves to the WSL this summer. They each have hundreds of thousands of social media followers and their announcements saw their respective clubs and the league trend across Twitter. That has a value that goes beyond likes on their posts and photos.

Those numbers convert to improved viewing figures of games across the league, as more fans take an interest. More than two million people tuned in to watch the BBC's Women's Football Show in the first week of the season, after football returned from six months off.


Tobin Heath has also come to Manchester from the United States

The increased chatter abroad spurred on by these high-profile signings – along with the likes of Chelsea's Pernille Harder and City's Bronze – has also meant an international broadcast deal for the Football Association, with matches now shown across various platforms in Germany, Italy and the United States. Telegraph Sport also reported last month that Sky Sports is understood to have secured the rights to broadcast the WSL next season, such is the upsurge of interest, in the first monetary deal in this country since the league was launched in 2011.

The value big-name additions bring to the league is clear, and the six-figure deals, some rumoured to be record-breaking, also seem to be paying off for the clubs. Over two-thirds of United's sales of Press and Heath shirts have been to US-based fans. City were wise to this, too, offering free US shipping on their shirts for 48 hours after Mewis and Lavelle joined their ranks, with their announcements supported by live links to the online store where fans could immediately buy their favourite player's jersey.

The US women's team are far more successful than the men's, the players are household names in a way their male counterparts could only dream of. Clubs here took note, by recognising their marketability as well as their skill on the pitch. On the Manchester clubs' online stores, merchandise with their women's players' names on the back are searchable alongside their men's squad.

Heath, Press, Lavelle, Mewis and Bronze's shirts are dotted among the De Bruyne, Foden, Rashford and Cavani strips, as punters scroll through the respective club websites' best seller page. To have them side-by-side is not only a measure of both City and United's approach, but also of the way they have recognised the clout these female players' names carry.

This season will be remembered as the one where the Americans came to play, and also helped prove women's football was not only worth watching but also worth paying for.

These shirt sales figures are solid evidence against the out-of-touch and tone-deaf banging of the drum by Twitter dinosaurs that "nobody cares about women's football". Quite clearly, they do.

A Catarina Amado não tem lugar nesta seleção?
