The USA international remained an AS Monaco player, but it’s now being reported that he could be on the move in the January transfer window.

What are your thoughts on a potential move for Marcus Rashford? 👀 Everton and Man United are said to be in talks over January move…
Balogun has played just 74 minutes of football this season as he’s been plagued by an ankle injury, so he’s yet to score his first goal.

However, despite a slow start, it’s being reported by Italian outlet Tuttosport that Juventus have made the 25-year-old their prime target ahead of the winter window.
Juve have a great relationship with Balogun’s agent Jorge Mendes, so the European powerhouse may be able to strike a deal with Monaco for a discounted fee.
Balogun was due to join Everton in a £40m deal, but Luciano Spalletti’s side could negotiate that asking price down significantly.
Everton are expected to sign a striker in January, and will of course have to pivot from their initial plan to sign Balogun.
The Toffees have been consistently linked with Troy Parrott over the last 12 months, so the board may reignite their interest in the Real Betis frontman.
Parrott, who netted 31 goals for AZ Alkmaar last season, has been in and out of the Real Betis team since arriving in the summer.
