Folarin Balogun's incredible form for Reims has led to renewed interest from AC Milan in prising the starlet away from Arsenal.
The Gunners loanee, 21, is the top scorer in Ligue 1 with 14 strikes — ahead of the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar.
Milan held an interest in him while he was in Arsenal's youth team and The Daily Mail report that the Serie A giants are eyeing a move alongside Villarreal and Marseille.
England Under-21s star Balogun will have two years remaining on his deal this summer and Mikel Arteta must decide whether to cash in.
Eddie Nketiah has stepped up since Gabriel Jesus' injury at the World Cup, giving the Emirates chief two strong options for the No9 role.
Arteta has spoken highly of Balogun's development in France and insists no decision will be made on his future until the summer.
He said: "The plan is that he finishes his period there, assess the situation where he is, where we are, then sit down and plan the next chapter in his developing career."
New York-born Balogun has been in the Gunners' academy since 2008 and spent a largely successful spell on loan at Championship Middlesbrough in the final half of last season.
