For Sergino Dest, his decision regarding his international future will be coming up this week. The U.S. Men’s National Team and the Netherlands are Dest’s two options, with the youngster only having experience with the United States National Team so far.
Berhalter told Siriux XM that he and Earnie Stewart, who is the general manager of the United States National team, had a meeting with 18-year old Dest and his American father last Thursday. I think the important thing is reiterating how he’s coming through the program, him being a part of it, and how he’s performed with the U-17’s and U-20’s. For him it’s been comforting to be with us and it’s good to hear that from him and how it’s meant to him,” Berhalter said.
“We wanted to continue supporting him, especially after his tough game against Chelsea. He’s a good kid, he’s a pleasure to watch, it’s tough for teams to scout him because he’s good defensively and he’s quick too, but also offensively he’s always getting forward and he’s dangerous.”
It’s expected that Dest will make his decision about his international career before the end of the month. In case he picks the United States National team he will be expected to be included in Berhalter’s Concacaf Nations League squad for matches against Canada and Cuba scheduled for mid-November.
