Everton reportedly acquiring USMNT star Folarin Balogun from Monaco in $52.3 million transfer
Balogun has reportedly agreed to a 4-year deal with a one-year option as part of the transfer back to England.
Folarin Balogun, the star forward for the United States men’s national team, is set to join Everton from Monaco in a transfer valued at $52.3 million, according to reports by soccer insider Fabrizio Romano. The deal includes a €45 million ($52.3 million USD) transfer fee, plus an additional €5 million ($5.8 million) in potential add-ons.
Balogun has signed a four-year contract with a one-year option, and he is cleared to travel for a medical examination before the completion of the transfer. The move is expected to strengthen Everton's attack ahead of the Premier League season, which concludes on Tuesday. Balogun, who had a stellar season with Monaco, scoring 13 goals and adding four assists, will now return to England, a place he considers his home given his upbringing in London and his early football career with Arsenal's academy.
