He's surprised everyone this year. Played half a season for Middlesbrough last season and didn't look good at all.

We'll see if this is just a purple patch or if he's really becoming a top striker.

So do you think he goes back to the gunners next season or send him back out on loan?

I think he'll either be with Arsenal or he'll be sold. Another loan seems unlikely.
But I can't see both Balogun and Nketiah on the team next year. They're too similar. So one will probably be sold.

There already are a few teams interested in Balogun.

Think he would be an interest to United? I know a striker is high on their list or is he still a little raw and needs experience/consistency?

Yeah, I think he's too raw for a Premier League top club. I can see him at a club like Leipzig when they lose Nkunku. I think Italy would be a good fit for him too.

Cool thanks for the insight. I’ll try and keep an eye on him. The National team is missing a striker. Would be nice if they finally got one.

Yeah, watching the team at the World Cup it looked like a clinical finisher is what they're missing.

City make Madrid look like relegation fodder. The can't even get out of their own half.

They're going to win the treble this year if even this Real team can't stop them. I'm not even going to watch the final.
