Folarin Balogun has been urged to turn down a January transfer to Manchester United, according to Football365 and Metro.

Folarin Balogun has been advised to reject a move to Manchester United in January, reports Football365. The former Arsenal striker has been told that the project at Old Trafford "would set him back," according to the outlet.

Metro echoes the claim, citing the same warning about the project's potential impact on his development.

TEAMtalk adds that an Arsenal forward has been told that joining United in January would mean "he will have failed," as it would mean giving up the fight for a starting spot at the Emirates.
