Onyewu misses out on World Cup call-up

Wednesday defender Oguchi Onyewu has been left out of the US squad for next month’s World Cup in Brazil.

Onyewu, who has played in two previous tournaments for the States, was not included in the preliminary 30-man training squad named by coach Jurgen Klinsmann yesterday.

Wednesday said recently that they would be having talks with the player’s representatives about the possibility of extending his current short-term contract, which runs out this summer. This could now happen sooner rather than later, given Onyewu’s absence from the acton in Brazil.
