Goalkeeper Tim Howard is taking at least a year off from playing with the U.S. national soccer team, citing a desire to spend more time with his family.
Howard, 35, who made a World Cup-record 15 saves in the U.S. team’s 2-1 loss to Belgium last month in Brazil, just started his ninth consecutive season with British club Everton. The English Premier League season runs from August to May.
