Folarin Balogun makes Arsenal transfer decision as European clubs eye deal amid USMNT callup

Arsenal starlet Folarin Balogun is leaning towards an exit from the club this summer in search of regular game time going into next season. According to Sky Sports, the 21-year-old isn't keen on spending another campaign on loan, with a permanent deal offering a stable footing for the next stage of his career.

The youngster enjoyed a successful season on loan at French club Reims, where he continually found the back of the net to quickly catch the attention of many. Balogun ended the year as joint-fourth highest scorer, bagging 20-goals and only sitting behind Kylian Mbappe, Jonathan David and Alexandre Lacazette.

His impressive returns have led to plenty of links with some top European clubs, with Inter Milan, AC Milan, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt amongst those reported with interest. With plenty of competition in the Arsenal ranks going into pre-season there's no guarantee of minutes either.
