USA boss Klinsmann eyeing River Plate's Funes Mori, Estudiantes' Hoyos

USA manager Juergen Klinsmann is believed to be casting his eye over a pair of Argentine-American players.

According to ESPN's Jorge Ramos, Klinsmann is keen on River Plate's 21-year old forward Rogelio Funes Mori and 21-year old Estudiantes winger Michael Hoyos.

Ramos posted the following on Twitter in Spanish, which was translated to English: "Jurgen Klinsmann has called Rogelio Funes Mori and Michael Hoyos and asked them if they would accept a call-up from the United States."

Funes Mori made the move to Texas with his family at the age of 10 and went on to win the Sueno MLS competition which landed him a trial with FC Dallas whilst Hoyos was born in California but moved back to Argentina at age 15.
