“With Christian, I think the hard part with him is, he is, whether he likes it or not, the leader of this team,” Donovan said on his Unfiltered Soccer podcast with Tim Howard.
“He doesn’t have to wear the armband, and everybody is watching everything he does. So, the example I’m going to use is Yunus Musah.
“I don’t have any info on this, I don’t have any inside info but I can imagine, and I could be wrong, that over the last few months, Christian and Yunus were sitting and talking in the locker room, and Christian saying ‘I’m just thinking of not going to the Gold Cup because I am tired’.”
