Everton sends official bid to Monaco for Folarin Balogun
Fabrizio Romano reports Everton has sent an official bid to AS Monaco for Folarin Balogun as talks continue.
Everton, according to Fabrizio Romano, has sent an official bid to AS Monaco for Folarin Balogun. The report suggests the negotiations are still ongoing, so there’s no indication of a deal being fully agreed yet.
Bid for Balogun
This move fits Everton’s plan to strengthen their attacking options. The push for Balogun is being framed as the way to add a new forward while talks with the French club continue.
Planning after Beto
In the same update, Romano also includes a related piece of business: Beto is heading to Fiorentina for €17 million. With that exit seemingly close, Everton’s trying to line up a replacement and avoid a drop in goal threat.
What comes next
For now, what’s clear is the official offer and that discussions are ongoing. The next step would be a Monaco acceptance and agreement on the details before the transfer can move beyond the current stage.
