Sources report that two Premier League giants—Chelsea and Tottenham—are both showing strong interest in the American forward as they look to bolster their attacking options.
Paris Saint-Germain are also ready to join the race. The French champions have added Balogun to their shortlist as a potential replacement for Gonçalo Ramos, whose future in Paris remains uncertain.
However, Monaco have no intention of letting one of their key players go easily, so any potential suitors will likely need to put up a significant fee for his transfer.
At the current World Cup, Balogun has featured in two matches for the United States, scoring twice and registering one assist. Transfermarkt currently values his transfer fee at €40 million.
