Balogun Everton move blocked by medical treatment

Monaco's CEO claims Folarin Balogun pulled out of £40m Everton move due to how he was treated during his medical examination.

Monaco's chief executive Thiago Scuro suggests the Merseyside club is responsible for Balogun's decision to reject the transfer. The US international signed a deal sheet shortly before 11pm on deadline day but pulled out shortly after.

Everton had renegotiated the fee structure with Monaco after discovering an issue with Balogun's medical and failed in attempts to sign Joshua Zirkzee or Tammy Abraham on loan as alternatives. Scuro also defended Monaco's late decision not to sell Lamine Camara to Chelsea. milkshakeslot.online
