One can start to see the blueprints of the exciting ‘Arteta Project.’ A project that looks like it will unveil a future where the attacking spearhead of Arsenal will consist of a young core of explosively fit, fast and extremely talented footballers. The core of which may be a relative unknown superstar in the making, a footballer who has had to be hidden away in the shadows of football bureaucracy, in which we were given a glimmer of how the top echelons of the football club hierarchy deal with contractual elements of the game.
A deal will be announced shortly to inform the world that Arsenal Football Club, has tied down Folarin Balogun to a long term contract and in doing so have defended a potentially precious talent from exiting the club on a free transfer. This no doubt looks like a successful negotiation that can go on to help in the flourishing of the ‘Arteta Project.’
A project in which it looks like Arteta’s unique talents in coaching players to improve, can benefit an already talented Folarin Balogun, whose record in Arsenals under 23 team already boasts an impressive 9 goals and 3 assists from 17 appearances. This alone may not be amazing, however it comes on the back of an amazing 25 Goals in an under 18 winning season, in which he scored two hatricks and a game in which he scored 4 goals.
