Frantzdy Pierrot out, third major absence for the Grenadiers before the United States

Head coach David Badia will have to manage without striker Frantzdy Pierrot for the Nations League quarter-final against the United States. The Haitian Football Federation has announced his withdrawal. He joins defender Jean-Kevin Duverne and midfielder Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, who were already ruled out due to injuries.

One more striker down

Pierrot, 31, was one of the four true centre-forwards that Badia had selected for these matches. He has not played a single match this season for his club, AEK Athens. The nature of his issue and the length of his unavailability have not been specified.

A two-legged tie for the semi-finals

Haiti faces the United States in two matches, this Saturday and next Tuesday. The Grenadiers' goal is to qualify for the semi-finals by eliminating their opponents. Badia will have to adapt his starting eleven to the absences and the options at his disposal.

The squad already in the United States

The majority of the Grenadiers arrived on American soil on Tuesday. Among them is Patrick Nwadike, introduced as the group's newcomer.
