USMNT prospect Cole Campbell nets brace for U19s on international debut in victory over England - with Borussia Dortmund teen following in Christian Pulisic's footsteps

Campbell announced an<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/christian-pulisic-gio-reyna-u-s-soccer-borussia-dortmund-u19-cole-campbell/blt5715a35857fb01a8" target="_blank"> international switch to the USA from Iceland</a> earlier this year. The Borussia Dortmund teenager is a catch for the U.S. - with the Bundesliga club rating the 18-year-old highly at the club level. The brace from Campbell and an additional goal from Marcos Zambrano handed the USA victory over the Young Lions in Morocco. <picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt9488e4ebd9b6dfed/GJdBveBWkAEaVDg_(1).jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt9488e4ebd9b6dfed/GJdBveBWkAEaVDg_(1).jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt9488e4ebd9b6dfed/GJdBveBWkAEaVDg_(1).jpg?format=jpg" alt="Cole Campbell USMNT Instagram post" data-source="" data-copyright="Instagram/Cole.Campbell7" data-portal-copyright="Instagram/Cole.Campbell7" perform:prop="uuid:blt9488e4ebd9b6dfed;width:1170;height:2044"></picture>

WHAT HAPPENED?

He recently revealed that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/usmnt-aron-johannsson-borussia-dortmund-cole-campbell-represent-the-usa/blt71862d7a8dcc1847" target="_blank">ex-USMNT forward Aron Johannsson - who is also Icelandic-American - was a heavy influence</a> on his choice to switch international allegiances, while USMNT stars Christian Pulisic and Gio Reyna are both individuals who inspire him as well. The duo each represented the Bundesliga club in their teen years, with Pulisic now playing with AC Milan in Italy and Reyna on-loan from Dortmund in the Premier League with Nottingham Forest.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

18-year-old goalkeeper Diego Kochen, who started the match in net against England for the USA, plies his trade at the club level for FC Barcelona. He impressed so much during 2023 preseason that he was included as a reserve goalkeeper on the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/news/u-s-youth-international-diego-kochen-barcelona-champions-league-roster/blt3bce1909b8878f8b" target="_blank">Catalan club's UEFA Champions League roster.</a>
