Monaco’s general manager Thiago Scuro said on Wednesday the Ligue 1 club were willing to sell US striker Folarin Balogun and France winger Maghnes Akliouche.

n

Scuro’s side and Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain are in talks about a deal worth 35 million euros ($39.9 million) for 24-year-old Akliouche, who is with Les Bleus at the World Cup.

n

Balogun scored three goals for the co-hosts at the tournament before they were knocked out by Belgium in the last 16.

n

The 25-year-old featured in the knock-out loss after US President Donald Trump asked FIFA to suspended his red card ban.

n

Scuro said Cameroon midfielder Lamine Camara could also be on his way of the Prinicipality outfit as they look to decrease their salary spend.

n

“Individuals like Balogun, Akliouche, Camara are of interest to teams,” Scuro told AFP.

n

“If we reach an agreement that is right for Monaco, it could be done very quickly.

n

“If not, there will be nothing, but there are talks going on every day,” the Brazilian added.
