Chelsea have entered the increasingly competitive race for Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, joining Liverpool and Manchester United in tracking one of Ligue 1’s most highly rated young players.

"Personally, it didn’t affect me all that much. Balogun is an important player for us and for the team. Looking back, though, something like that shouldn’t happen. A red card is a red card and it should stand. I don’t know who exerted how much influence in the situation. But when there is a suspension following a red card, you shouldn’t go back afterward, reopen the discussion and change the decision." — U.S. midfielder Malik Tillman, reflecting on Folarin Balogun's lifted red-card suspension at the 2026 World Cup in an interview with the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger.

Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Crystal Palace have all made an approach to sign Lamine Camara from Monaco (Getty) Chelsea have joined the race with Liverpool and Manchester United to sign Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, according to reports in France. Camara has spent two seasons with Monaco after joining in a £12.8 million deal from Metz two years ago. The 22-year-old has also made 49 appearances for Senegal and played in four games at the World Cup this summer. This week, Crystal Palace have seen their offer in excess of £35m for Camara rejected by Monaco, who are trying to keep the defensive midfielder for at least another season.

But according to FootMercato, Monaco’s stance is likely to be tested even further as Chelsea are the latest club to have made an approach after Palace, Manchester United and Liverpool. The report claims that Monaco are holding out for a €50m (£42.7m) transfer fee for the Senegal international. Lamine Camara made four appearances for Senegal at the World Cup this summer (Getty) Monaco are also in a strong negotiating position as Camara still has three years remaining on his contract with the Ligue 1 side. Speaking after his side’s 3-2 win against Liverpool at Anfield last Sunday, Monaco head coach Filipe Luis made it clear that he wants Camara to stay at the club. ‘We want to build a truly competitive team. I’m very selfish and I want to keep all the players. I don’t want anyone to leave,’ Luis said. ‘But I know that clubs have to make sales, which we have done. I hope we can keep him. He’s probably one of the best midfielders in the world. ‘I don’t want to say too much, because I know that many clubs are interested in him. We all want him to stay. He’s really important to me. He’s very gifted with the ball at his feet, he covers a lot of ground. He’s an exceptional player. I’m really pleased with him. ‘I have every hope that he stays. I think he’s happy in Monaco. If he stays, he’ll be able to work even harder. Because he’s going to play, as I said, a key role in my system of play.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.

In a recent report, L’Equipe mentioned that Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on Monaco striker Folarin Balogun. It has been mentioned that Spurs are eyeing a €60m move to secure the service...
The striker has taken his career to new heights since leaving the Gunners, and starred for the US at the World Cup this summer, where he scored three goals as his country reached the last-16.
Manager Alfred Johansson says Motherwell play in a style that will allow "excellent footballer" Joe Hodge to "flourish and develop further" after the Republic of Ireland midfielder signed for an undisclosed fee from Portuguese side FC Tondela. Primarily a deep-lying midfielder, the former Wolves player featured in 26 games in Portugal's top flight last term as Tondela suffered relegation to the second tier. A product of Manchester City's youth academy, he played 13 times for Wolves, six of which came in the Premier League, and had loans at Queens Park Rangers and Huddersfield before his move to Portugal.
Liverpool's first pre-season under new boss Andoni Iraola has not been without its challenges - but one reason for optimism is the emergence of 18-year-old defender Ifeanyi Ndukwe. Iraola's side are short of numbers in central defence, so Austrian teenager Ndukwe has been handed more minutes than even he might have expected. With two lots of 90 minutes and an 80-minute display already under his belt, Ndukwe was handed a start alongside captain Virgil van Dijk against Monaco at Anfield on Sunday.
