Arsenal loanee Balogun takes swipe at Southgate

Arsenal loanee Folarin Balogun has appeared to take a swipe at England manager Gareth Southgate.

Balogun, who is excelling on loan at Reims in France, is not in the England squad for this month's international break.

The youngster, who can also represent the United States or Nigeria, wanted to play for England.

Balogun, who has scored 17 goals in 27 games this season, went onto Instagram and posted the following quote:

“In life go where you're appreciated. Be easy."

The message appears to suggest he may be leaning towards USA or Nigeria for his international career.
