Former England star John Barnes believes Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun needs to leave.

Balogun is considering his future as he stars on-loan with Reims this season.

Barnes told bettingexpert.com: "Balogun is doing really well for Reims because the way they are playing suits him very well.

"But just because he is doing well for Reims that doesn't mean he all of a sudden will come back to England and perform in the same way."

“Tammy Abraham is doing well at Roma and Smalling as well because they are playing a kind of football that suits them, which is what matters."

“So, just because he is doing well overseas doesn't mean that he will come back to Arsenal and play instead of Jesus or Nketiah.

“I think he should either stay there or move to a club that suits him very well and I don't necessarily think that he is going back to Arsenal."
