Folarin Balogun on his new contract at Arsenal: “I’m absolutely buzzing, it’s a moment I’ve been waiting for for a long time so I’m glad that it could finally happen & it could get sorted.” #afc
Balogun: “I came here at nine, I remember being at Hale End & coming into the training ground for the first time & seeing all the older boys training & just thinking, ‘These are the same guys you see on TV’. From that age, I had a drive & ambition to be that guy eventually.” #afc
Folarin Balogun: “The boss played a big role in that, he spoke to me numerous times, giving me lots of advice, lots of confidence & after a while, I decided to take the leap of faith, trust him & I’m glad I did that.” #afc
Folarin Balogun: “Obviously looking at other boys who have made the step from the academy into the first team showed me that I need to have faith in myself. As time has gone on, I have put the work in & I’m glad I was also able to make the step up myself.” #afc
