Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun has become the youngest player to score 17 goals in his first season in Ligue 1 since 1956.

The centre-forward, on loan to Reims, found the net against Marseille on Sunday.

Hassan Akesbi was the last player to achieve that feat 67 years ago.

Incredibly, he has his eyes on Glenn Hoddle's record of 18 goals - the most scored by an Englishman in Ligue 1 - when he was with AS Monaco.

Balogun is weighing up his international options after being overlooked by England coach Gareth Southgate for this week's Euro qualifiers.
