Marcelo Bielsa has just inadvertently given Leeds United and Daniel Farke a major pre-season lead

Marcelo Bielsa terminated Aaronson’s service with the USMNT, the previous season’s return due

Aaronson and the USMNT went into their final Copa America group stage match this week knowing they had to match Panama’s result to advance.

However, they faced Marcelo Bielsa’s Uruguay, who are looking for a third consecutive group win, and a 1-0 win by the former Leeds manager sent the USA into third place and elimination, while that Panama beat Bolivia 3-1.

Aaronson collected just four minutes in the three games the USMNT played and his involvement ends with Leeds now awaiting the player’s return later in July.

The USA’s progress in the knockout stages would have put Aaronson in doubt for the German tour, but now, after a period off, it is his turn to return to Thorp Arch sooner than expected.
