Former Brazil international and current coach Filipe Luís has offered an encouraging assessment of Monaco striker Folarin Balogun, stating that the player has overcome significant challenges since the World Cup and shown marked improvement in training.
Speaking to Get French Football News, Luís noted that Balogun "has been through a lot since the World Cup" but added that "his form in training has improved a lot." The comments suggest the 23-year-old United States international is regaining confidence after a difficult period.
Balogun, who joined Monaco from Arsenal in 2023, has been working to establish himself as a consistent scorer in Ligue 1. The positive feedback from a respected figure like Luís, who won numerous titles as a player with Atlético Madrid and Chelsea, could signal a turning point in the forward's season.
