Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe has urged teammate Folarin Balogun to commit his international future to England.
The Three Lions Under-21 international is reportedly holding talks with the United States, the country of his birth, over switching allegiances following his fine form for Ligue 1 side Reims.
Of course," Smith Rowe told reporters when asked if he wants Balogun to commit to England. But obviously it's his decision.
That's down to him to do what he wants to do. It would be nice if he could be with us in the summer [for the U21 Euros] but like I said, that's down to him and he's got to do what's best for him."
After scoring 18 goals on loan with Reims this season, the striker is set for talks over what role he has to play at Arsenal.
That could follow a final decision on whether to represent the USA or stick with England, where he moved aged two after his Nigeria-born parents emigrated from New York.
