The relentless search for the next benchmark in attack continues at the heart of Inter Milan, one of Serie A’s iconic forces. After coming close to glory in the 2022-2023 Champions League final against Manchester City, the Nerazzurri are determined to step up his attack up front and his eye now falls on Folarin Balogun.
The young striker has once again caught the attention of Inter Milan managers after a successful loan spell at Stade de Reims. The need to strengthen the squad in the transfer market remains strong and Balogun is proving to be an attractive option to strengthen his attacking arsenal.
Inter Milan are looking for a new 40 million striker
Despite his performance on the pitch, Gianluca Scamacca’s future appears to be pointing towards Atalanta, prompting Inter to rekindle interest in Folarin Balogun. According to Fabrizio Romano, negotiations between Inter and Arsenal, the holder of his passport, have already started. It is rumored that the Gunners could be ready to release the striker for a sum of around €40m.
Arsenal are confident of making a sizeable profit from the sale of Balogun, who has shown his talent while on loan at the Stade de Reims. The 22-year-old forward has garnered attention with his scoring chances and prowess on the pitch. Now the ball is in Inter Milan’s hands, who must decide whether to invest in securing Balogun as a fundamental part of their attacking strategy.
The transfer market is booming and Inter Milan fans will be alert to any news regarding the possible arrival of Folarin Balogun. If the transfer goes through, the young forward could play a key role in Inter’s efforts to maintain its status as a strong contender both in Serie A and at European level.
