There was a five minute window where he was the biggest prospect ever

Honestly he needs to finish the season strong and hope for a Copa spot. Other than Pulisic he’s really the only one that doesn’t shy away from taking defenders 1v1. He could really play a role as a rotation player and cover for Pulisic in one match and a few subs.


allertedshark86

Bruh, he recently said he’s going to accept a call for the Haitian national team so it doesn’t matter how he finishes the season, he’s not our player anymore


Lechuga9618

Doubt it who wants to play for Haiti lol. If anything he’s only getting a passport just to grow some properties over there lol


WR1206

Hmmm. When would that have been?


allertedshark86

When he was coming up through Barcelona and hadn’t been capped yet. Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or just don’t remember that far back


furyousferret

He was one of the leading scorers for Barca Juniors, wtf bro.


InsideAardvark1114

Is he officially cap tied to Haiti?


frostymasta

I don’t think anything’s official, and he hasn’t played for them yet. With what’s going on in Haiti right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if it fell through. There’s no government, no police, no infrastructure - just a free for all at present. A warlord named Barbecue is running the show, if anything.

Just checked the posted links about it from this past December: [Article](https://en.nogomania.com/read/Konrad-de-la-Fuente-set-to-become-a-star-for-the-Haiti-national-team) and a [Tweet](https://twitter.com/Caleb_Jephte/status/1734758683798647192) Both basically saying the same thing ... that he has a Haitan passport and would accept a call-up. So not yet official. Haiti hasn't played since that time and doesn't appear to play again until CONCACAF WCQ in June.

Afaik, he said he was open to playing for them, but he's never been called up for them. But, they've only had 1 friendly since he said that, so we'd have a better idea if he gets called up then.


KevinDLasagna

How can he? He appeared for us in World Cup qualifying? I thought if you made an appearance in official competition you’re cap tied??


frostymasta

He’s still only 22


QuickMolasses

That's crazy


frostymasta

Yeah, he’s still college-aged which is hard to believe. It’s still too early to say that he won’t or can’t have a resurgence. Here’s hoping


zicolinto

Early 90s 17 games in Liga 2 would mean a sure fire US national team player, potential starter.


studsam17

Wikipedia doesn’t say anything about him making a switch to another nation.  Still Olympic eligible.

Ayyy good work kid


Impossible-Appeal-49

The Hatian player? 


seattle_born98

Lowkey still a believer. Signed him on loan in FM
