Transfer Drama on Deadline Day: Last-Minute Snub for Chelsea
AS Monaco's two rejections almost even affected Enzo Fernandez's mega-deal to Manchester City.
The Deadline Day drama surrounding Lamine Camara is causing frustration for FC Chelsea – and nearly scuppered the Enzo Fernandez deal.
According to consistent media reports, the transfer chaos was triggered by the ultimately uncompleted departure of Folarin Balogun (AS Monaco).
Monaco Scuppers Camara Transfer to Chelsea
While "RMC" reports a failed medical, Everton reportedly renegotiated, according to reports from England. Ultimately, the US striker, according to "The Athletic," decided against a loan to the "Toffees" himself.
The Monegasques, in turn, then also scuppered the deal for Lamine Camara to Stamford Bridge. The last-minute snub is likely to sour the "Blues" – Camara had reportedly already completed his medical.
Fernandez Deal Also in Limbo
As reported by "The Telegraph", the rejection almost even affected the mega-transfer of Enzo Fernandez.
