Arsenal urged to make Folarin Balogun transfer decision as he outshines Messi, Neymar and Mbappe

Arsenal have been told they must make a tough decision over the future of Folarin Balogun in the summer amid an impressive spell on loan with Ligue 1 side Reims. The academy graduate struggled to get regular game time with Championship side Middlesbrough last season, but has taken well to life in France since moving there.

The 21-year-old now has 14 league goals in 21 appearances, meaning he is outscoring PSG trio Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. It has led to questions as to where he may fit into the Arsenal side for the future, with the need to continue progressing after his loan spell.

"Arsenal is my family. For me, the club represents brotherhood and unity,” Balogun explained to L'Equipe earlier this season.
