Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun has been told to snub England and instead become America's new poster boy.

USA legend Eric Wynalda says that the forward can be the man to fire his country to glory.

And he is adamant that the US Soccer Federation should be promising him all-sorts of endorsements and incentives to get him to turn his back on England.

Speaking to The Action Network's Wondergoal Podcast, Wynalda, who scored 34 goals in 107 caps, said: If we get Folarin Balogun him we solve a lot of problems.

I'm impressed with everything about him. The power that he has, the timing of his runs.

We have to appeal to his ego which is the reality of this. We should let him know that he will be a star.

An absolute star."
