Player Of Nigerian Descent Takes Decision On New Arsenal Contract

Arsenal loanee, Folarin Balogun is reportedly opposed to signing a new contract at the English Premier League (EPL) giants and has no desire to make another loan move this summer.

TOP MEDIA reports that the 21-year-old goalpoacher has seen his stock soar during the 2022-23 campaign, with 19 goals recorded during a productive stint at Ligue 1 outfit Reims.

Balogun, who has his heritage with Nigeria, is seeing questions asked of his club future. He still has two years left to run on his deal at Arsenal, but is reluctant to discuss fresh terms as he wants to be first-choice somewhere at this stage of his career and knows that he will face competition from the likes of Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah at Emirates Stadium.

Now according to The Athletic, no new deal will be discussed this summer, while Balogun has also made it clear that he does not want to see another loan switch sanctioned. Instead, he will wait to see whether reported interest from the likes of AC Milan, Inter, Marseille, Monaco and RB Leipzig delivers formal approaches.
