The listed Atlanta United players are goalkeeper Brad Guzan, defenders Michael Parkhurst and Leandro Gonzalez Pirez; midfielders Ezequiel Barco, Julian Gressel, Pity Martinez and Darlington Nagbe; and forward Josef Martinez. Centerback Miles Robinson, who was just named to the preliminary roster for the United State’s Gold Cup team, is not on the ballot.

The MLS All-Stars will play 10-time Spanish champions Atletico Madrid at Orlando City Stadium on July 31. Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium hosted the game last year.
The fan ballot was created by media members who nominated a total of 192 players, eight from each team with at least one player per position. The voting took place May 9-16 and panel did not include The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Fans may vote for one goalkeeper, and at least three defenders, four midfielders, and two forwards.
