Arsenal striker Balogun visits USA training after pulling out of England U21 squad

Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun has dropped the biggest hint yet he's ready to commit to the USA.

The striker has impressed on loan at Stade Reims this season scoring 17 goals in 27 Ligue 1 games.

But it was not enough for Gareth Southgate to give Balogun his first England call-up.

And he has reacted negatively to the news, posting a cryptic message on Instagram.

It read: "In life go where you are appreciated."

A few days later Balogun withdrew from the England Under-21s squad through injury.

And he has now fuelled speculation he could be set to quit England by rocking up in Orlando, Florida.

The USMNT is training in the city ahead of games against Grenada and El Salvador in the CONCACAF Nations League.

Balogun shared some photos from Orlando on Twitter alongside the caption, "you know what to do," which included a string of USA flag emojis.
