He has already registered three goals for Monaco, breaking out famous Thierry Henry celebrations in the process, and was back on target when facing Reims in his last Ligue 1 appearance. Balogun did not celebrate that strike, but those around him are delighted to see a clinical finisher doing the business.
Diatta told reporters after witnessing Balogun’s latest eye-catching performance: "This year, we're strong, especially with Balogun, who has just come in and has incredible efficiency in front of goal. We already knew his qualities, but he helps us a lot."
Balogun has added to an attacking unit at Monaco that also includes club captain Wissam Ben Yedder, Senegalese star Diatta, ex-Liverpool forward Takumi Minamino and Russian playmaker Aleksandr Golovin. They are next in action against Metz on October 22.
