Minnesota United FC today announced that five players have been called up to represent their respective countries during the current FIFA international window. The group includes midfielder James Rodríguez (Colombia), defender Michael Boxall (New Zealand), midfielder Carlos Harvey (Panama), midfielder Nectarios Triantis (Greece), and MNUFC2 defender Philip Tarnue (Liberia). The players will join their national teams for various international friendlies and World Cup qualifiers. Rodríguez has been called up to represent Colombia on the world stage for the third FIFA World Cup appearance of his career, having previously featured in the 2014 and 2018 tournaments. In 2014, Rodríguez scored his iconic Puskás Award-winning goal against Uruguay to help Colombia advance to the quarterfinals. The Colombian captain has made over 120 senior international appearances for his country, tallying 31 goals and 41 assists while logging more than 9,000 minutes for Colombia. Boxall will join the New Zealand National Team as the All Whites prepare for the FIFA World Cup 2026TM. New Zealand officially secured qualification for the tournament early last year after Boxall scored the qualifying header that sent the Kiwis to their third FIFA World Cup appearance in the country’s history, marking Boxall’s first-career FIFA World Cup appearance. Harvey has earned more than 20 senior international appearances for Panama while scoring three goals for his country. He notably scored a stunning strike from distance on May 31 against Brazil. Triantis has received another senior call-up to the Greece National Team after completing a FIFA one-time switch to represent Greece internationally in August 2025. Tarnue has received a call-up to represent the Liberia National Team during the international window.
