Orlando City SC defender Tyler Turner was added to the US Under-23 roster for the upcoming Toulon Tournament on Tuesday, completing head coach Andi Herzog’s 20-man squad.


Turner is one of six MLS players on the roster, joining Colorado Rapids Homegrown players Shane O’Neill and Dillon Serna, D.C. United defender Jalen Robinson, Real Salt Lake defender Boyd Okwuonu and San Jose Earthquakes midfielder Fatai Alashe. New York Red Bulls II midfielder Dan Metzger and Seattle Sounders Academy product Jordan Morris are also in the squad.



He is the second Orlando City player to be added to a US youth roster this week after fellow defender Conor Donovan was named on Monday to the US Under-20 World Cup squad to replace injured midfielder Russell Canouse. The 19-year-old Turner has four appearances, including two starts, for OCSC this year.


The US will begin their run in the Toulon Tournament on Wednesday, when they face off against host France in Group A (1 pm ET, beIN SPORT).
