Four LA Galaxy players named to U.S. national team rosters

Jurgen Klinsmann has released his 23-man roster for the upcoming U.S. Men's National Team friendlies in Europe vs. Denmark and Sweden.

Gyasi Zardes is one of six domestic players to be called up, joining Jozy Altidore, Michael Bradley, Clint Dempsey, Nick Rimando and Brek Shea. Oscar Sorto and Bradford Jamieson IV were also called up to the U-20s, while Ariel Lassiter accepted an invite to join the U-23s that will accompany the senior side in Europe.

Zardes will miss LA's next match on the road vs. D.C. United this Saturday -- bad news for the Galaxy with Robbie Keane also missing out to participate in Euro 2016 qualifying for Ireland.
