'Next Kylian Mbappe' transfer opens up potential Arsenal exit for Folarin Balogun

French club Reims are eyeing a potential move for Arsenal starlet Folarin Balogun this summer, according to reports. It comes as the academy graduate's current role at the club is uncertain ahead of the upcoming season.

That's because of some changes up front, with both Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leaving in the past few months. Eddie Nketiah has signed a new long-term deal, while Gabriel Jesus has joined to solve the issues in the striking department.

With those two likely to secure the main attacking roles, it remains to be seen what will happen with Balogun. The 21-year-old spent the second half of last campaign on loan at Championship side Middlesbrough, making 18 league appearances with three goals and three assists.
