Arsenal make huge decision on Folarin Balogun's future (reliability: 4 stars)

Arsenal are open to selling Folarin Balogun this summer. According to Daily Mail, with the striker having no plans to extend his contract or head out on another loan, it makes sense that the time could be right for him to leave.

Balogun has spent this season at Stade de Reims, scoring 18 goals in Ligue 1 – one fewer than Kylian Mbappe and more than Neymar or Leo Messi.

The 21-year-old is due back in north London in the summer but faces being behind both Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah in the Arsenal pecking order.

Balogun has been linked with a possible £30m move to AC Milan and Arsenal will expect lots of interest in the 21-year-old this summer.

Balogun first joined Arsenal’s academy in 2012. He signed a new, long-term deal in April 2021 and spent the second half of last season on loan at Championship side Middlesbrough. The striker has made two Premier League appearances, both of which came in August 2021.
