Everton are considering a move for USMNT forward Folarin Balogun ahead of Tuesday's transfer deadline, sources have told ESPN. Manager David Moyes is determined to bolster attacking options and Monaco forward Balogun, 25, is a leading target to complete a switch to the Premier League side. However, Balogun's hopes of returning to England following previous spells at Arsenal and Middlesbrough depend on Everton completing outgoings before the window closes.

Senegal forward Iliman Ndiaye is in talks with Tottenham over a move to the London club, while a separate deal would see Richarlison return to Everton four years after leaving for Spurs in a £50 million ($67m) transfer. Sources indicate it is unlikely Everton will sign both Richarlison and Balogun before the Sept 1 deadline — 11:00 p.m. BST / 6:00 p.m. EST — unless the club raises funds by offloading former Udinese forward Beto.

Everton green-lit Ndiaye's exit after pulling the plug on a £40 million deal to offload 19-year-old midfielder Harrison Armstrong to Nottingham Forest due to supporter unrest. Moyes also has interest in Sunderland defender Trai Hume and Manchester City winger Jack Grealish, but adding both Richarlison and Balogun requires sealing Beto's departure.
