Arsenal want 64 million dollars for their striker and can sell him if they receive what they want financially. Inter Milan are also very keen to sign Balogun and it is expected that soon they will send also an official offer.

Folarin has 2 years remaining on his deal with the Premier League team and is open to a transfer as he is not the 1^st choice of Mikel Arteta to lead the attack.

The striker from the United States was not part of the team for yesterday’s Community Shield victory against Manchester City, as from the club are sharing that they have a foot problem.

Folarin netted 21 goals in 34 starts for Reims in the past campaign in Ligue 1, but Arteta prefers Kai Havertz and Eddie Nketiah ahead of him.
