Arsenal set Folarin Balogun price tag amid Inter interest

Arsenal have slapped a £50m price tag on striker Folarin Balogun as Inter begin talks with the player's representatives, 90min understands. The USMNT inter national has recently returned to Arsenal following a hugely successful loan spell at Reims in Ligue 1. During his single season in France, the striker netted 21 goals in 37 league outings - a tally bettered by only Kylian Mbappe, Alexandre Lacazette and Jonathan David. Having rejected the opportunity to sign a new contract at the Gunners upon his return, 90min recently reported that the club have asked the player's representatives to begin talking to interest ed parties in order to find a buyer.
