Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has praised Arsenal loan, Folarin Balogun. The French legend says that Balogun is very english-style player.
“I’m really happy for him because in general English players don’t go abroad – normally players are loaned either to another Premier League side or in the Championship. He’s a very English-style player who likes to run down the channels but he was missing something, which was his finishing.”
“He’s now starting to score goals regularly and I’m happy for that – happy he has gone abroad. It’s especially so considering he is a Londoner, in general Londoners struggle to leave London. When I heard he was coming to France, it made me think he has a refreshing mindset.”
Since his loan move to Reims, the striker has now scored five goals in six appearances (as well as two assists) already for the Champagne side as he begins his time in Ligue 1 in blistering form under Oscar Garcia.
