Balogun has been heavily linked with a move away from AS Monaco, with Chelsea reportedly reaching a verbal agreement with the striker. Tottenham, Crystal Palace, and Ipswich Town are also circling the 24-year-old.
Speaking to Ozoon, Keller said a Premier League move would be ideal for the former Arsenal academy graduate.
“Would a move to Chelsea or Tottenham be good for Folarin Balogun? Look, the Premier League right now can pay you more than anywhere else,” Keller said.
“You have a very limited time in your career. Let’s be honest, Balogun is an Arsenal guy. He is a London kid. So an opportunity to move back to the capital, if that is right for him, it’s right for him.”
Balogun, who left Arsenal for Monaco in 2023, has caught the eye at the World Cup, reigniting interest from English clubs ahead of the summer transfer window.
Chelsea are understood to be leading the chase, though no formal bid has yet been submitted.
