    ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - Major League Soccer announced the 2024 MLS All-Star roster Monday, and among the selections will include St. Louis City SC goalkeeper Roman Bürki.

    The selection of Bürki by Columbus Crew head coach Wilfried Nancy will mark Bürki's second consecutive MLS All-Star Game selection. Bürki was the starting goalkeeper for last year's MLS All Star Game, which saw the All Stars embarrassingly lose 5-0 to Arsenal.

    Bürki, 33, has started 19 matches and has tallied five clean sheets. His five clean sheets are tied for sixth best in MLS. Bürki is one of nine MLS starters to tally a penalty kick save

    Among the goalkeepers joining Bürki for the MLS All-Star Game will include World Cup-winner, former Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who is now with LAFC, and FC Dallas goalkeeper Maarten Paes.

    The Columbus Crew will sent the most players to the All-Star Game with five. Inter Miami will send four players, with the Champions League-winning FC Barcelona legends in Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, unsurprisingly, being the selections.

    The MLS All-Stars will play the Liga MX All-Stars on July 24 at Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio.
