Everton have submitted an offer for AS Monaco forward Folarin Balogun, multiple reports say. The 25-year-old striker, who had a strong Ligue 1 season last year, is currently under consideration for a move away from Monaco.

BBC Football reports that Monaco values Balogun at £40m, indicating the scale of Everton’s interest and the price point under discussion. Yahoo Sports, citing Fabrizio Romano, also reports that an approach has been made, adding that Balogun has not played for Monaco recently.

While both outlets agree on the existence of Everton’s bid and the player’s involvement, they differ in the amount of detail provided, particularly around his recent appearances and the reported valuation. Both accounts frame the situation as an ongoing transfer process rather than a completed deal.
