Arsenal set Folarin Balogun price tag amid interests

Arsenal has reportedly slapped a £35 million price tag on Folarin Balogun following his successful loan spell last season with Ligue 1 side Stade de Reims. The striker has grabbed the attention of several clubs in Europe, including in the Premier League following news that he wants to leave.

Crystal Palace, a Premier League rival, is also keen on Balogun. Initially, RB Leipzig appeared to be leading the race for Folarin Balogun’s signature but has now shifted focus to alternative targets upon learning of Arsenal’s valuation. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, is actively seeking to bolster their forward department, especially with talisman Wilfried Zaha potentially departing the club. Balogun has emerged as a prime candidate on their shortlist, alongside their previous target, Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson. Balogun is desperate for first-team football and does not want to go out on loan again. Arsenal, on the other hand, are prepared to sell the United States international but for a steep fee that could price him out of a move. Folarin Balogun unveiled as a USMNT player.

The Gunners have agreed to a £65m fee for Kai Havertz from Chelsea who will compete with Gabriel Jesus up top. Eddie Nketiah also remains at the Emirates and is expected to fill in as a squad member. That leaves no space for Balogun, who is keen on being the main man at another club. Football fans eagerly await the outcome of this transfer saga, as Balogun’s next destination could have a significant impact on his career trajectory. Whether he stays in the Premier League or moves abroad, the talented striker’s journey is set to continue with high expectations surrounding his future performances.

Nollywood actress Uche Ogbodo has issued a stern warning to whom it concerns asking people to stop tagging all actresses as “ashawo”.

There have been several rumors tarnishing the image of Nollywood actresses due to the lifestyle some of them live. People have the perception that most Nollywood actresses live extravagant lifestyles because they sleep with men for money. Taking to her Instagram story, Uche stated that not all female celebrities are prostitutes. She hammered on the fact that most female actresses believe in hard work and also don’t mind dating a guy for 5-10 years whether he is wealthy or not. “Bullets flying up and down since! Haaaa! Make unah cam Dan! No be all of us be ASHAWO. Some still dey we be hard workers! Decent! Respect their bodies! No be every actress body dey street ooo. Actresses are like every woman in general.

Some of us believe in staying with one man, dating one man sef for 5-10 years and being faithful to him alone weda money dey or money no dey. While we keep working hard. Because we no go fit shake our family Name!”.
