Inter focus on Arsenal’s Folarin Balogun

The Gunners striker Balogun is a top target for the Italian club after they failed to reach an agreement with Chelsea for Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku played in the past campaign on loan at Inter Milan, as he triumphed with Coppa Italia and reached the Champions League final. However, he will need to return to Chelsea after Inter is unwilling to pay what the Blues want for the forward.

Inter Milan are interested in signing Arsenal and USMNT striker Folarin Balogun.

Inter prefers to get their attention on Folarin Balogun (22) as they see him as a long-term solution for their attack. The Italian club has yet to make an official offer for the forward to Arsenal as the USA international is currently with the Premier League team on their pre-season tour in the USA.

When Arsenal’s manager Mikel Arteta was asked about Folarin’s future, the head coach declined to confirm that the forward would stay 100% in the club and be available for the beginning of the new Premier League campaign.
