Reims are closing on loan deal to sign Folarin Balogun from Arsenal, set to be agreed until June 2023.

Flo Balogun debut goal for Reims! He hasn't had much of a sight of the ball but makes good with his first effort. Fabulous headed finish. Great start to an exciting year for Balogun.

RB, Diego Rossi from NYCFC Academy in negotiations with Parma FC. Jaime continues to break great American prospect news. Give him a follow if you do not already! https://t.co/esbHUCSeUe— Marcus Chairez (@chai_asc) August 8, 2022
I wonder if thats a first team contract. Parma is in Serie B. Rossi isn't a bad player either. I could've easily seen him get a first team contract with NYCFC. Who is better, Parma or NYCFC? I'm not sure it's Parma. Rossi probably could've gotten some more USYNT caps as he's one of the better '05 RB's, but I can't be too upset about losing him to Puerto Rico. Could he theoretically reach his ceiling and be low-USMNT level? Yes, but most of them don't reach their ceiling.

I know he's now too old for this thread, but are you guys following the Alex Zendejas drama? Mexico's in a little bit of trouble. Alex aired some dirty laundry in the press since this. Its all over the Mexican soccer media. I do wonder if an accumulation of bad experiences by dual-nats that switch will end up having any effect. Will Jonathan Gomez read articles like this and think "What the hell?" Maybe not. The pull to Mexico is strong. Former USMNT prospect Alejandro Zendejas faces controversy over Mexico eligibility - The Athletic It always surprises me that: A) The players and their representatives seem to not know the rules. B) That Mexico never had him file a one-time switch, and kept calling him up. Were they being shady or just incompetent. I'm guessing the latter. Alex Zendejas is still eligible to play for either Mexico or USA. He has not signed any papers.— Jenny Chiu (@jennyachiu) August 25, 2022
Zendejas started playing for Mexico before the current rules were announced, right? And never appeared in anything possibly resembling an official competition with Mexico after appearing for the U.S.? I have no idea whether any of this matters or might matter, but figured I'd ask. Still an odd situation, whatever the case, I suppose.

Folarin Balogun 🇺🇸🏴 has scored again today from Reims in Ligue One. He now has 6 games in France with 5 goals scored, playing for not such a strong team. He is most certainly a player for the 2026 cycle, as long as he accepts a call up.— Tactical Manager (@ManagerTactical) September 4, 2022

Kancepolsky looked pretty solid with Israel's YNTs this summer. He seems like a guy who can get a chance at a higher level if he so chooses.
