Juventus targets Folarin Balogun for January transfer window
Summary

Folarin Balogun is Juventus’ primary target for the January transfer window as the club seeks to bolster its attacking options. The USMNT striker, currently at Monaco, has had limited playing time this season, amassing only 74 minutes. His potential move follows a failed agreement with Everton in the summer, where health concerns reportedly influenced his decision not to join. Juventus maintains a strong relationship with Balogun's agent, Jorge Mendes, which could facilitate the transfer. However, it's uncertain if the club can meet Monaco's expected fee of £40m.
