THE BIGGER PICTURE: McKennie has been competing for minutes all season alongside USMNT compatriot Timothy Weah. With a new role this campaign as a right wing-back under Massimiliano Allegri, McKennie will have to continue to adapt if he wants to see starting minutes.
WHAT NEXT FOR MCKENNIE? The 25-year-old and the Bianconeri play Sassuolo in Serie A next Saturday.
