The men's US national team has called off plans to go to&nbsp;Qatar&nbsp;for a winter&nbsp;training&nbsp;camp&nbsp;following&nbsp;unrest&nbsp;in the <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/trump-impeachment-row-us-senate-in-stalemate-over-how-to-proceed-272003">Middle East</a>,&nbsp;US&nbsp;Soccer&nbsp;said on Friday.

"Due to the developing situation in the region,&nbsp;US&nbsp;Soccer&nbsp;has decided to postpone travelling to&nbsp;Qatar&nbsp;for the Men's National Team's scheduled January&nbsp;training&nbsp;camp,"&nbsp;US&nbsp;Soccer&nbsp;said in a short statement.

Iran's clerical and military rulers have threatened revenge for an American air strike at Baghdad airport on Friday that killed Qassem Soleimani, commander of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards Quds&nbsp;Force and architect of its growing military influence in the Middle East.

US coach Gregg Berhalter had called up 25 players for the 20-day sojourn scheduled to begin on January&nbsp;5.

His side were to play closed door games at Doha's Aspire Academy before heading home to face <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/international-magazine-271883">Costa Rica</a> in Carson, California&nbsp;on February&nbsp;1.

That game will go ahead as planned,&nbsp;US&nbsp;Soccer&nbsp;said, and they are now working on an alternative schedule to prepare for that fixture.

"We are working with the&nbsp;Qatar&nbsp;Football Association to find an opportunity in the near future for our team to experience&nbsp;Qatar's world-class facilities and hospitality,"&nbsp;US&nbsp;Soccer&nbsp;added.
