    As a usmnt and sounders fan, I’m a bit sad but as a fan of his I’m really stoked. This is a smart move for him and I hope he gives them a run for their money.

    I'm imagining him going head to head with Josh Atencio in a U.S. v Mexico game and my loyalties are divided! I'm gonna need good ice cream for a game like that.

      Atención is trash
      Will never make the senior USMNT roster
      He should play with Mexico or with whoever his heritage is from

    Its a smart career move- he wouldn't get into the current U.S. lineup and Mexico is on a complete rebuild. good luck

    Congratulations, Obed! You are such an awesome example of where hard work and determination can take you.

    Better chance of breaking into the Mexican midfield than the US midfield. Its that simple really. Its unfortunate as a US fan, but I wish him luck...except if plays against us. lol

    It'll be strange rooting against this guy assuming he makes it to the El Tri roster. I wish him a lot of personal success.

    He’s still too young and I feel this was a premature decision. He made a call without even being an option from what he is saying. If Mexico came to him and said we want you in the squad, then you convert but without a real offer I feel this was a stupid decision because now you can’t come back.

    Fuck yea now we just need Bryan Rodriguez from Chicago fire. This guys going to Europe for sure so Mexican American players might be the move for us since Liga Mx is allergic to selling to Europe lol

    It’s simple he doesn’t have a spot in the us he’s another Julian Araujo situation he never had a future with the USMNT there’s many players that are above him that also don’t get called in to the us it’s fun to know that the USMNT will win the next nations leagues and gold cups for years to come He acts like he had the choice when in reality he’s not good enough for the us

      Mexican players aren’t African players! Mexican players dream of playing for their national team! As for Julian araujo there’s a reason he is being considered for the Barcelona right back and Dest is not wanted by the club…… your statement seems like it’s coming from a bitter place. Not everybody wants to be a part of your national team……

      You could just say that you are happy for the guy to be able to represent his family and his heritage without sounding like a salty prick. Also,trying to talk down on the kid about things you clearly don’t know anything about is all on you and your own character.
