A major advantage of birthright citizenship. 2 Nigerians living in London take a vacation to the US and boom......a star USMNT striker is born. Literally.
Looking forward to this. Hopefully this incompetent federation can finally get its head out of its ass and hire a good coach. That is something I’m not too optimistic about.
Will probably be another MLS wonderkind like Jim Curtain.

It was more than a typical vacation, as they were in the US for months visiting family.
And probably making sure he was born here before they went back to London.
Many #9’s don’t peak until later in their careers. So we have no way of knowing what either will be in 5 years. Dike, after his injury issues finally just rounded back into form this calendar year and scored 7 goals in 23 games and lead in goals for West Brom in the Championship. Sadly, West Brom finished like 3 points out of the playoffs so he won’t be promoted unless someone buys him this summer.
