A week after Jordan Morris made news at home by signing with the Seattle Sounders, two exciting United States men's national team prospects made noise in Europe on and off the pitch. 

Christian Pulisic and Matt Miazga, who could end up being vital pieces to the USMNT squad next to Morris in the future, were the starlets who found themselves in the headlines.

If he continues to receive playing time from manager Thomas Tuchel, Pulisic should make the squad for the USMNT's Olympic qualifying playoff against Colombia in March. 

Elsewhere in Germany, John Brooks started and played 90 minutes at center-back for Hertha Berlin in their 3-3 draw with Werder Bremen. Brooks, who was the topic of some transfer speculation, will remain with the club after signing a new contract that lasts until 2019, per ESPN FC.
