Folarin Balogun
24-Year-Old
Monaco
Ligue 1
Scores one goal in win
Balogun scored one goal to go with five shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 1-0 win over Galatasaray. He was injured and subbed out in the 86th minute.
ANALYSIS
Balogun started up front Tuesday against Galatasaray after missing a match due to a groin injury and proved his importance by scoring the only goal of the game. He could have extended the lead with a season-high five shots but was a bit wasteful. The striker continues to perform well in the Champions League, having scored in three consecutive competitive matches in the competition, bringing his total to seven goals in 17 appearances across all competitions.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Arsenal set price tag
Arsenal will ask Chelsea for £50 million if they want to sign Balogun, according to The London Evening Standard.
ANALYSIS
Arsenal will probably ask other teams for a smaller transfer fee, but they don't want to sell their striker to a rival. However, given what the club has spent over the last 12 months, it wouldn't be shocking if they end up paying what Arsenal are asking. Balogun had an impressive season with Reims in 2022-23 and bagged 21 goals in league play for the Ligue 1 club.
