Olivier Giroud has sent a message of support to Folarin Balogun, with the Arsenal loanee being eyed by AC Milan after impressing on loan with Stade Reims.
Balogun has been on fire for Reims this season, with his strike in their 1-0 win over Monaco on Sunday moving him onto 17 goals in 28 games in all competitions. The 21-year-old has been a revelation in Ligue 1 – only Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe and Lille’s Jonathan David are above him in the scoring charts.
Arsenal sent Balogun on loan to Reims for the season to get more first-team experience and have been rewarded with some red-hot form. Balogun showed his talents by running in behind the Monaco defence to score the game’s only goal on Sunday.
