Folarin Balogun ‘to remain’ at Monaco after failed Everton move | OneFootball

Folarin Balogun, 25, is likely to remain at Monaco after his deadline-day move to Everton collapsed, Nice-Matin understands.

The United States forward has rejoined the squad, though the club are seeking to raise funds and reduce his sizeable wage. With the markets in Türkiye and Saudi Arabia still open, a departure remained possible despite the window closing in France and much of Europe.

Asked about Balogun’s situation, chief executive Thiago Scuro said there was a chance the former Arsenal striker stays, a cautious stance that kept the door open.

With Aleksandr Golovin and Pape Cabral both potential departures, the expectation has shifted towards Balogun staying for now. An exit in January is foreseeable.

Lamine Camara will also remain after a failed move to Chelsea, and he is expected to be retained until the end of the season.
