“Monaco are set to win the race for Folarin Balogun in a deal that could be a record sale for Arsenal. Negotiations ongoing over fee/structure but it could exceed the £35m Liverpool paid for Oxlade-Chamberlain. Would take #AFC summer sales to around £80m”

It seems ludicrous that £35m is the transfer record.

We suck at selling. I would've guessed like £50m-ish as our record without looking it up. I did not remember the it was Ox.

We've not been big sellers in the last 5 years, which has seen transfer values ramp up immensely. Hopefully Balogun is the beginning of a new era of sales for us.
