Are you watching Arsenal? Loanee Folarin Balogun nets a HAT-TRICK for Reims to keep up his red-hot form in Ligue 1, as the striker, 21, overtakes Kylian Mbappe in race for the Golden Boot

Folarin Balogun continued his sizzling goalscoring form since joining Reims on loan from Arsenal as he netted a hat-trick against Lorient to inspire their 4-2 comeback win on Wednesday night.

The 21-year-old now has 14 strikes to his name in Ligue 1 and his heroics take him above PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe at the top of the scoring charts following a sensational season for the forward.

His first goal was a cooly taken penalty to pull one back for his side after they had gone 2-0 down at home, before Kamory Doumbia levelled the scores.
