Donald Trump has warned that the United States will soon be decimated by Latin Americans.

And according to Argentina's national soccer team, he's right.

In a satirical video ahead of this year's US-hosted Copa America, Argentine sports channel TyC Sports boasts that they are a force to be reckoned with - using none other than The Donald as their mouthpiece.

'We’re having people coming in through the border that are not people that we want,' Trump's voice declares over footage of world-class striker Lionel Messi, Pablo Zabaleta, Javier Mascherano et al emerging from an airplane.

'We need to build a wall', Donald Trump declares - in a tongue-in-cheek ad promoting Argentina's national team

'Thousands of people are coming through the border, hundreds of thousands, and they’re unchecked,' he continues, as a clip flashes across the screen showing streams of fans in Argentina shirts flood through an airport.

As he says 'they're being sent all over the United States', viewers are shown each of the 10 stadiums across America which will host the tournament in June - from Philadelphia to Los Angeles.

'We don’t even know where these people are all coming from. They’re coming from all over. They’re coming from South America,' he exclaims.

The footage cuts to shots of the squad in action.

As the camera zooms in on Messi's face, Trump continues: 'These are total killers. These are not the nice, sweet little people that you’d think, okay? We have no protection... We need to build a wall. And it has to be built quickly.'

He concludes - as Sergio Aguero taps in a goal - 'They are totally taking advantage of us. And that's happening, whether you like it or not.'

Words then flash up on the screen: 'The truth is, the best thing they could do is to not let us in.'

Argentina has not won the Copa America since 1993, coming second in 2007 and 2015.

They are hoping to clinch the title this year, on the 100th anniversary of the tournament, as the United States takes on hosting duties for the first time in history.

The contest features Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Haiti, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, the US, and Venezuela.

It will be played out in 10 cities - Chicago, East Rutherford, Foxborough, Glendale, Houston, Orlando, Pasadena, Philadelphia, Santa Clara, and Seattle - from June 3 to June 26.

The US has been preparing for the competition since being confirmed as the host in May 2014.
