Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun has welcomed interest from Chelsea.

The Blues are interested in the USA international as they seek a new centre-forward signing.

The London Evening Standard says Balogun is aware of Chelsea's interest and let it be known he's keen on a move to Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal want £50m to sell Balogun, with AS Monaco having seen a £35m offer rejected.

Now Chelsea have come forward and been encouraged to make their move by Balogun.
