'He knows that we want to retain him': Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta reiterates desire to keep hold of Folarin Balogun after teenager's goalscoring cameo against Dundalk

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta praised Folarin Balogun's cameo in the Europa League win over Dundalk and reiterated his desire to keep the teenage forward at the club.

The 19-year-old came off the bench to set up Joe Willock and score one himself as the Gunners won their final Group B game 4-2 in Dublin to advance to the knockout stages with a perfect record.

Eddie Nketiah had given the visitors the lead before a fine long-range strike from Mohamed Elneny had them two goals up - only for Jordan Flores to pull one back.
