According to Sami Mokbel, Premier League club Everton has made a formal offer for Arsenal's highly-rated striker Folarin Balogun. The young forward is reportedly valued at £40 million by Arsenal.

The bid comes as the transfer window rapidly approaches its close, with a deadline set for Tuesday. Balogun's future at the North London club has been a subject of speculation, particularly given his impressive loan spell last season and the competition for places in Arsenal's attack.

While Everton has made a move for Balogun, the report also notes that Tottenham attacker Richarlison is another option being considered by the club, though the Brazilian is still contemplating his next career move. This development indicates a busy period for transfers as clubs finalize their squads before the deadline.
