First Trump, now Everton: Balogun at center of another fiasco as deadline-day transfer fails‎

U.S. striker Folarin Balogun pulled out of a deal to join Everton in the final minutes of European soccer’s summer transfer window because he felt uncomfortable that the English club raised doubts about his health in a medical check, Monaco’s sporting director has revealed. In an unusually candid summary by a soccer official about an aborted transfer, Thiago Scuro held a news conference and gave — in English — a detailed, step-by-step laydown on how Balogun’s proposed move to Everton for a reported 40 million pounds ($54 million) fell apart with the clock ticking on deadline day. According to Scuro, Balogun underwent a medical examination at Everton on Tuesday afternoon.
