Arsenal forward Folarin Balogun trained alone earlier today at their California base as the club prepare to face Barcelona on Wednesday.
The full 29-man squad were present at the LA Rams training facility in Thousand Oaks, with both Balogun and Oleksandr Zinchenko – who is still nursing a calf injury from the end of last season – training separately.
It’s unclear as to why Balogun trained alone, and comes at a time amid much interest surrounding the 22-year-old.
The striker also didn’t feature against Manchester United in New Jersey on Saturday, where 19 players were used.
Inter Milan are said to be preparing a £35million bid, while Arsenal value the player closer to £50million.
