Goalkeeper Bill Hamid has been forced to withdraw from U.S. national team camp with a knee injury and will be replaced by Sean Johnson, U.S. Soccer has announced.
The federation didn't provide details of the injury, only saying the D.C. United goalkeeper suffered the problem just prior to the start of camp.

The U.S. camp will run from Jan. 11 to Feb. 6 and will finish with friendlies against Iceland on Jan. 31 and Canada on Feb. 5, both of which will be played at StubHub Center in Carson, California.
