Chris Richards has been selected to represent the United States as the USMNT prepares for the Copa America this summer.
Former Palace man Gregg Berhalter, now manager of the US side, has selected a 27-man squad for the June training camp, ahead of deciding his final squad for the Copa America.
The tournament will take place in the United States, with the hosts taking on Bolivia, Panama and Uruguay in the group stages in Texas, Atlanta and Kansas City respectively.
If they qualify from their group, there is a strong chance they would take on Colombia in the knockout rounds, meaning Richards would meet Palace teammates Daniel Munoz and Jefferson Lerma.
He won't have to wait that long, however, with the United States taking on Colombia in a pre-tournament friendly dubbed 'The Summer Showdown' at Commanders Field in Maryland. The stadium, home of NFL side Washington Commanders, has a capacity of 91,000.
Richards will then take on Brazil in the 'Allstate Continental Clásico' in Orlando, Florida.
