A new twist in the American's career. Juventus target Monaco forward

Juventus are closely exploring the possibility of signing Monaco striker Folarin Balogun during the upcoming winter transfer window.

Details: According to football insider Ekrem Konur, the Bianconeri are considering the 25-year-old American forward as one of their potential options to strengthen the attack in January. The Italian club's interest has grown significantly amid the player's uncertain status at Monaco.

The striker was previously on the verge of returning to the English Premier League: a €50 million transfer to Everton fell through at the final stage after the Toffees' medical staff detected issues during his examination. Balogun is currently not even included in the French club's squad for UEFA Conference League matches and is keen on a change of scenery, which could prompt the Turin giants to bring part of their planned summer transfer budget forward to the middle of the current season.

It is worth noting that the Arsenal academy graduate has been playing for Monaco since the summer of 2023, having joined after a highly successful season with Reims. The striker consistently displayed impressive scoring form for the United States national team, but a series of injuries and increased competition in Monaco's attack have significantly limited his playing time in recent matches.
