  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Weah's Copa America ended prematurely when he was sent off in the US' shock 2-1 loss to Panama, and the Juventus man could only watch from the sidelines as their 1-0 defeat to Uruguay ended their tournament without reaching the knockout stages. Now, the 24-year-old has visited Ghana as he tries to move on from this difficult episode.

• WHAT TIMOTHY WEAH SAID

  In an Instagram story, Weah posted a black screen with the location Accra, Ghana, and then the words: 'Resources + Rejuvenation, Family time."

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Weah's costly red card against Panama could have ended up being the difference between Gregg Berhalter's side falling in the group stages and making the quarter-finals of the Copa America. The US' early exit is not a good sign, especially as they hosted the tournament – plus, this is not a good dress rehearsal for the 2026 World Cup, much of which will be played in their country.

  WHAT NEXT?

  Weah, who apologised for his red card last week, will have a break and then return for pre-season training for Juventus in the coming weeks. He may feature for the US again in their next friendly match against Canada in September.
