It appears that Arsenal have made a decision when it comes to Folarin Balogun, who will soon be returning from his loan at Stade de Reims.
Once he does, there was the hope from many Gunners fans that he could be given a shot by Mikel Arteta, but it seems Edu Gaspar has other plans for him.
That’s what Calciomercato.it are saying on Wednesday, reporting that both AC Milan and Napoli are interested in the Arsenal striker.
They state the Rossoneri’s radar is ‘aimed at’ the goalscorer, while the recent Serie A champions are ‘also on the boy as well’.
Having scored 20 goals for Reims so far, with just one game left in Ligue 1 to go, he will return to Arsenal as a prized asset, which is why he would not be allowed to go at ‘low figures’.
However, the Gunners seem ‘willing to deprive themselves of him outright’, meaning a potential sale is on the cards if the right offer is made.
The ball is now in the Italians’ court, who will now have to count their money and ensure they can put a convincing offer forward if they are to get Arsenal to agree to a move.
