Arsenal set Folarin Balogun asking price amid RB Leipzig interest

Arsenal have set striker Folarin Balogun's asking price amid reported interest from Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig.

Balogun is hot property after an excellent season with Ligue 1 outfit Reims, for whom he scored 21 goals last season.

Arsenal are moving closer to signing Chelsea forward Kai Havertz for a reported £65m, while they already have strikers Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah on their books.

It means that Balogun is unlikely to get much gametime upon returning from his loan spell. However, Eddie Nketiah is being linked with several Premier League clubs in which case the Gunners may look to hold on to Balogun.

The North Londoners will only let Balogun go if they receive a minimum offer of £35m for the former England youth international.
