Those wondering whether Edgar Castillo should have been called up by the U.S. national team for its upcoming World Cup qualifiers should know that Castillo is sidelined with a hamstring injury, but is expected to return to action for Tigres when the club returns to action on Oct. 18 against first-place Toluca.
Castillo was injured in training last week and was unavailable for selection for his first U.S. national team call-up since switching from Mexico to the United States. U.S. Soccer officials have been in touch with Castillo since his switch became official last month.
Castillo, who turns 23 on Thursday, will be taking part in the newest installment of The SBI Questions, where he will answer qustions from SBI readers. Keep an eye out for that on SBI in the coming days.
