Following an impressive performance in Ligue 1 last season, where Balogun netted 21 league goals for Reims, the young striker has captured the attention of several European clubs. In the latest development, it is rumored by The Sun that Tottenham has expressed interest in the player, potentially considering him as a replacement for Kane.
Zooming out for a broader perspective, Arsenal has already declined a £34 million ($43 million) bid from Monaco for Balogun, with the Gunners valuing the 22-year-old at no less than £50 million ($63 million). Tottenham, financially bolstered by Kane’s substantial transfer fee of over £100 million ($127 million), could potentially meet these demands. However, the race to secure Balogun’s services also involves Fulham, who are in search of a successor to Aleksandar Mitrovic, as well as West Ham, adding an element of competition to the mix.
