13 Jun
Summary
- Antonee Robinson is fighting back to fitness for the 2026 World Cup.
- He made over 130 Premier League appearances for Fulham.
- Robinson is engaged to Darcy Myers and they have two children.
Antonee 'Jedi' Robinson is diligently working towards full fitness, with the ambition of being included in Mauricio Pochettino's USMNT squad for the 2026 World Cup. The tournament's co-hosting by the United States means his fiancée, Darcy Myers, will be there to support him.
Robinson, a left-back for Premier League side Fulham and the USMNT, was born in Milton Keynes in 1997. He plays for the United States through his American father and has earned over 50 senior caps since his 2018 debut.
He previously played for Everton's academy and had loan spells before joining Wigan permanently. Fulham acquired him for £2 million in 2020, and he has since accumulated more than 130 Premier League appearances.
Robinson's exceptional 2024-25 season, highlighted by 10 assists, earned him the 2024 US Soccer Male Player of the Year award. He was a starter in all four of the USMNT's matches at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
His fiancée, Darcy Myers, with whom he has been since 2019, is the mother of their two children: daughter Atlas, born in December 2021, and son Ocean, born in May 2024. The couple became engaged on March 14, 2022.
