The Columbus Crew left-sided player scored his first senior goal for USA in their CONCACAF Gold Cup semi-final triumph over Panama last year. Arfsten ended 2025 with 16 appearances for his country and was also named at MLS All-Star for his exploits at the Crew. Singling out Brazilian superstar Neymar as his soccer inspiration, the skilful and two-footed Arfsten knows what it takes to win, having been part of a Columbus side who have won the MLS Cup and Leagues Cup since he joined the club.
