The US national team officially announced that Arsenal talent Folarin Balogun has decided to play for the "Yankees" national football team.

The 21-year-old striker had to choose between the Nigerian, English, and US national teams. He was born in America and grew up in England. At the same time, his parents are from Nigeria.
