- Aaronson left national-team camp for his wedding to Milana D’Ambra, missed one training session and is expected to return to the squad within days.
- Manager Mauricio Pochettino named Aaronson in his World Cup roster earlier this week and still views him as a key midfield option for the tournament.
- The 25-year-old plays for Leeds United and comes from a soccer family that includes brother Paxten, sister Jaden and father Rusty.
- Teammates and staff supported the leave, with players planning to watch the ceremony remotely, and the move follows past USMNT precedents for short personal absences.
- The team remains focused on final preparations with group play coming up, opening against Paraguay in Inglewood before matches against Australia in Seattle and Turkey in California.
