Ian Wright has backed Folarin Balogun to replicate the form he is currently showing whilst on loan in Ligue 1 at Arsenal next season.
After the north Londoners signed fellow centre-forward Gabriel Jesus last summer, Balogun was sent on loan to Reims, with the club keen to find somewhere that would consistently give the talented frontman game time this season. Since then, the Hale End academy graduate has netted 17 league goals, a tally that only Jonathan David and Kylian Mbappe have bettered in the French top-flight this term.
That kind of form hasn't gone unnoticed either. In fact, Gunners icon Wright has heaped praise on Balogun's potential, backing the young striker to continue that kind of form when he returns to the Emirates Stadium at the end of the current campaign.
