Folarin Balogun is determined to make his mark with Arsenal this season.

Balogun has been promoted to the first-team changing room this season, and now the young striker is itching to show his worth.

Speaking in the matchday programme for Sunday's friendly against Chelsea, Balogun said: "I feel it's important to be in the first team changing room with the rest of the players.

"You feel like you are actually, fully involved.

"That's something I'm really happy with, I feel like more a part of the set up and that helps on the pitch as well.

"I always back myself. The more you prepare for something, the more confident you get, so I just need to keep working hard and sharpening up my tools."
