Atlanta United defender Caleb Wiley has been named to the U.S. men’s Olympic soccer team. The 19-year-old Atlanta native made the cut Monday when coach Marko Mitrović announced the full 18-man roster.
Wiley grew up in Morningside and joined the Atlanta United Academy at age 11 as a member of the club’s inaugural under-12 team in 2016. He made his pro debut at age 15 on the franchise’s reserve team Atlanta United 2 in 2020, then moved up to the main club at age 17 in 2022.
Now he’s headed to the Olympics. The U.S. men will train in Bordeaux starting Tuesday. They open on July 24 against host France, then meet New Zealand and Guinea. The top two nations in each group advance to the quarterfinals.
