Folarin Balogun has pulled out of a move to Everton from AS Monaco after a day of on-off talks left the transfer in ruins.
The United States striker was set to join the Premier League side but ultimately decided against the switch following prolonged discussions. The deal had been close at times but collapsed without agreement, leaving Everton without their target as the window continues.
Balogun remains with AS Monaco for now, with the failed move highlighting the challenges clubs face in finalising transfers. Everton may now seek an extension to pursue the forward again or turn to other options in the market.
