However, Jean-Pierre Caillot, president of Reims, had recently declared that one should not have false hopes concerning the English striker.
“I think it’s impossible. The rules of the game are very clear: these are boys who, when they join us, know that they are there to reveal themselves and it’s a step for them. So even if I does not decide for him, either Folarin will return to his club Arsenal to have his chance there, or he will be loaned out again or even transferred to a very high level club.” But this Tuesday, the file around Folarin Balogun takes a new turn, which redistributes all the cards concerning the future of the 21-year-old player.
