"USMNT and England vying for Arsenal loanee Folarin Balogun's services"
TL;DR
Folarin Balogun, a high-scoring striker who is eligible to play for the United States, England, and Nigeria, has been spotted in Orlando, fueling speculation that he may commit to the USMNT. Balogun, who plays for Arsenal and is on loan to French club Reims, has scored 17 goals in 27 league appearances this season. To join the US program, he would need to apply to FIFA for a one-time switch of associations. The USMNT has not had a clear-cut starting striker in quite some time, and acquiring Balogun would be a victory in the fight for dual nationals.
