Folarin Balogun transfer decision made that could mean Arsenal miss out on $44m deal

Arsenal star Folarin Balogun is set to miss out on a move to RB Leipzig after the Bundesliga outfit agreed terms with RC Lens striker Lois Openda.

Balogun has attracted plenty of interest from around Europe after netting 21 Ligue 1 goals across the 2022/23 season with Stade Reims. The likes of AC Milan, Inter Milan, Marseille and Monaco are all said to be monitoring his situation.

It's expected that the 21-year-old will push for a permanent move out of north London this summer. Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah are both ahead of Balogun in Mikel Arteta's pecking order, meaning this summer is an ideal time for both parties to part ways.
