Leicester City are said to be eyeing a move for Arsenal’s out-on-loan striker Folarin Balogun who has lit up Ligue 1 this season.
Balogun has spent this season with Reims in France, scoring 18 league goals, just one less than joint-leaders Kylian Mbappe and Johnathan David.
90Min report that Balogun wants to stay and fight for his place at Arsenal next year, with talks set to take place this summer over his future at the Emirates – as a result, Leicester have entered the conversation should Balogun depart North London.
