Folarin Balogun's return to the English Premier League has now been postponed until 2027. The US World Cup striker's potential $50 million transfer from Monaco to Everton has stalled in the final hours of European football's summer transfer window, according to multiple reports in Europe. Everton submitted a deal sheet to the Premier League to complete the deal, allowing the club a two-hour transfer deadline extension, but Balogun ultimately turned down the offer. A fee was agreed between the two clubs and Balogun was offered a significant wage increase.
Balogun was granted permission to travel to the blue side of Liverpool on Tuesday to complete his 'medical'. It is a common but necessary physical test that is always a formality for the world's best athletes. Balogun, 25, who was born in New York and grew up in London, missed most of Monaco's pre-season due to a minor injury he picked up at the World Cup. He scored three goals in four matches at the World Cup, including the winning goal in the knockout stage against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Balogun also faced an international controversy when President Trump requested FIFA President Gianni Infantino to review a red card that could have kept him out of the co-host match against Belgium. FIFA suspended the suspension, allowing Balogun to play, although the United States lost 4–1.
According to another report, published by French daily sports newspaper L'Equipe, Everton were previously to complete the transfer of Senegalese forward Illiman Ndiaye to Manchester City. Ndiaye's transfer was completed, but not Balogun's. If Balogun remains at Monaco until January in this situation, it would not be the worst for him and the US national team, although the club will be eliminated from the UEFA Champions League this season.
Balogun has remained an attractive player this summer after his breakout performances which also attracted interest from Champions League partners Aston Villa and Spanish champions Barcelona. Everton, who were suddenly left shorthanded at their peak when they sent experienced forward Beto to Italy's Fiorentina, may look to Balogun again next year. The American player could be a perfect complement to 6-foot-5 target man Thiarno Barry.
It won't take too long for the Gunners product to adapt to life on the blue side of Liverpool, as Balogun has made 10 first-team appearances for Arsenal over two seasons. In three years at Monaco, Balogun has scored 31 goals in 85 Ligue 1 and UEFA Champions League matches. If he remains healthy, Balogun is expected to feature in U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino's squad for games against Chile and Peru later this month, and also against Canada and Mexico in early October.
What will happen next
Now Balogun will remain at Monaco and focus on his performances next season. Everton will now have to look for a new midfield signing to their squad, while Balogun will get the opportunity to recover from his injury and cement his position with the club. It will be interesting to see if he gets another chance to join an English Premier League club in the future.
