THE BIGGER PICTURE

"He wanted to play Copa America because it was very important for him," Iraola said, "but he had restrictions and was still in pain. So two days after they were knocked out, he had surgery. He is out for some time. It is difficult to say how long but he won’t be fit for the start of the season. But September? October? I don’t know."

WHAT ANDONI IRAOLA SAID

Iraola's comments indicate there is no fixed timetable for Adams' return. The midfielder will need to prioritize his health, and getting back to 100 percent before a return to the pitch.The USMNT have two international friendlies in September against New Zealand and Canada. Adams' status is uncertain.
