England national team boss Gareth Southgate has explained his decision not to include Folrain Balong in his latest squad.
Despite his impressive form with Arsenal, Balogun didn't find his name in the Three Lions' squad list for the two Euro 2024 qualifying clashes against Italy and Ukraine.
Speaking about his decision, Southgate claimed Balogun still needs to improve in order to get his place in England's first team.
“We would like him to give it some time and if he is progressing the way he is and continues that progression there will be opportunities for him," he said, via Evening Standard.
