Arsenal's next Hale End star can show Mikel Arteta why Europa League is blessing in disguise

Arsenal’s likely participation in Europa League next season could prove to be a blessing in disguise for Mikel Arteta as it will allow young players to grow and gain valuable first-team experience as it has done in previous seasons.

One player in particular who would benefit from this is Folarin Balogun. The youngster has spent the second half of the season on loan at Championship side Middlesbrough, where he has excelled.

If the striker is unable to agree to another loan then staying at Arsenal would certainly be a good option, as he could receive valuable minutes in the Europa League throughout next season with the view to becoming a prominent figure in the Premier League.
