Serie A giants want to sign Folarin Balogun
Serie A giants AC Milan are looking into a future deal for Arsenal graduate Folarin Balogun, according to Calciomercato.
The 21-year-old is currently on loan with Reims in the French top-flight where he has excelled with 10 goals and two assists.
His performances have apparently caught the eye of the Rossoneri, who could look into signing a young striker in the summer.
The Milan giants are braced for Zlatan Ibrahimovic's retirement soon while Divock Origi has struggled to impress after his free transfer.
Meanwhile, Olivier Giroud is already 36 and manager Stefano Pioli has urged the hierarchy to purchase a younger replacement.
Milan were previously interested in landing Chelsea's Armando Broja, but a move is now unlikely following his long-term knee injury.
Balogun is a more realistic target for the club, but the big question is whether the Gunners will consider his sale at the end of the season.
Mikel Arteta has plans of reintegrating him into the Arsenal squad next term.
