Talented youngster set to reject Bayer Leverkusen in favour of Arsenal

Arsenal youngster Folarin Balogun is set to sign a new contract at the Gunners, having reportedly rejected a deal from Bayer Leverkusen.

Balogun has been the subject of many reports over the past 12 months, with the English youngster’s contract set to expire in the summer.

The talented 19-year-old was linked with a move to Sheffield United last September, but the Blades signed Liverpool’s Rhian Brewster instead.

Balogun was then linked with a move to RB Leipzig back in January, with reports suggesting the player had signed an agreement in principle to join them.
