Inter continue to be in search of a striker now. They aren't going for Lukaku anymore as you know. I have read that they are after Morata or Balogun signings. Morata is already willing to leave Atletico Madrid and join an Italian team again. He is 30 years old with way bigger experience than Balogun technically. But when it comes to scoring skills I don't side with Morata too much. Because he isn't the kind of a striker that scores so many goals in a season. He is doing better with a striker beside him as well.

In terms of this situation he can fit Inter's formation nicely. But Balogun has a really bright future on one hand. He was impressive in the Ligue 1 last season with 21 goals. I guess Arsenal would only loan him to them rather than a permanent deal for now. I wonder which side Inter will choose.
They have to take a gamble on either Morata or Balogun since they could not meet up Chelsea's asking price, and it looks like he is already heading to Juventus. While Morata is the more established striker between the pair I would go for Balogun. Alvaro Morata is 30 years, has played for some big teams and has established himself as a goal poacher. Last season, the spanish striker was only able to score 15 goals in 45 appearances in all competitions. Folarin Balogun is just 22 years old, on blazing form and had a successful outing in the french league with Reims, where he bragged 22 goals in 38 appearances in all competitions. Though, Arteta is still hoping to have a word with him, probably convince him to stay but I think he will do well in Inter Milan.
