Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are reportedly ready to sell Folarin Balogun.
According to The Sun, Arsenal are ready to cash in on Folarin Balogun in the summer transfer window.
The North London club reportedly want £35 million in transfer fees for the 21-year-old USA international, who spent last season on loan at Reims from Arsenal.
The report in the British tabloid has claimed that Crystal Palace are interested in Balogun, but they think that £35 million is too much for the youngster.
AC Milan and Inter Milan are also admirers of Balogun, according to the report.
Could Arsenal get £35 million for Folarin Balogun?
In our opinion, Arsenal could be able to get £35 million for Folarin Balogun in the summer transfer window.
There is speculation that West Ham United and Everton are interested in the 21-year-old striker.
With so many clubs keen on the striker, it is only going to drive Balogun’s price up.
And Balogun is only 21 and is now a full USA international striker.
And the striker, described as “really ambitious, really committed and really brave” by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on the club’s official website in February 2023, did extremely well for Reims last season.
Arteta added that it was “just incredible” what the striker was doing in Ligue 1, and said that he has “got something special”.
During his loan spell at the French club, the 21-year-old scored 21 goals and gave two assists in 34 Ligue 1 starts.
Former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey rates Balogun highly, and he has told The Sun that the striker is “a very exciting player” and is “good enough for the Premier League”.
