Folarin Balogun will stay and fight for his spot at Arsenal next season.

There was widespread belief that the 19-year-old would leave the club on a free transfer this summer.

But the Gunners managed to convince Balogun of his future at the Emirates as he penned a new deal until 2025.

The next question was where would Balogun spend next season, out on loan or in the first-team.

With Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette expected to depart this summer, football.london says Mikel Arteta wants Balogun to stay.

Arteta wants to recruit another striker this summer who Balogun would share playing time with alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
