Arsenal fans are talking about Folarin Balogun.
The 19-year-old made quite the impression in the Europa League group phase this season, scoring twice and registering an assist in three substitute appearances.
Although, he's yet to be given a Premier League debut by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
And it remains to be seen if he will still be at the club for the 2021/22 season as his contract expires at the end of the current campaign.
Earlier in the month, there was talk of a pre-contract agreement with RB Leipzig which was swiftly refuted by Fabrizio Romano who claims Balogun has received more than 15 offers but is stalling on a new deal with the Gunners as he wants to play first-team football.
But amid all the speculation regarding his future, the teenager has let his football do the talking.
Named in the U23's starting XI for their Premier League 2 clash against Brighton & Hove Albion on Friday evening, Balogun did what he does best - score goals.
The striker netted a hat-trick in a 5-0 win for the young Gunners with Miguel Azeez and Nikolaj Moller also on the scoresheet.
As expected, there has been a big reaction to Balogun's hat-trick on social media.
Judging by the responses, some fans are of the opinion that sorting out Balogun's contract should be technical director Edu's final mission in the January transfer window.
Take a look at what's been said on Twitter...
Meanwhile, Arteta has reaffirmed his desire to retain the services of Balogun, as a contract impasse between the player and Arsenal continues.
"Before he wasn’t training with the first team. We changed that. He’s showing a real hunger and desire to be with us," Arteta said this week. "We’re trying to get something done because we want him to stay. We have to go step by step.
"I think he’s made some big steps in the last few months where he wasn’t even training and then he had a few good games for us. So the steps are there and we want to try to keep him."
