The USMNT do, however, an exciting group of players at their disposal and Robinson has told Fulham’s of why ultimate glory should be the target for the 2024 CONCACAF Nations League winners: “I’m buzzing for it. It’s a huge tournament. I remember when I first heard that there was potential that we were going to be in it – which really excited me. Hosting it as well is going to be amazing. I don’t see why we can’t go and win the thing. I have got a lot of confidence in our team, we have got a really talented squad, so we are going to go there with full confidence to try and bring another trophy home.”

Robinson’s fine form at club level should see him make Gregg Berhalter’s Copa squad, with the 26-year-old defender adding on his emergence as a proven Premier League star: “One thing is just time. That first year in the Premier League was during Covid, it wasn’t quite a proper Premier League season. It took a lot of time for me to get used to being here, settling in and then evolving as a player. I put that down a lot to the gaffer [Marco Silva] and the coaching staff, they have done a lot to help me – help boost my confidence and help develop me as a player.”
WHAT NEXT?
Robinson is now a three-time Nations League winner, while he also formed part of the USMNT’s plans at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. He is up to 41 senior caps and is already counting down the days to a Copa America Group C opener against Bolivia on June 23.
