The Story of Deadline Day: Ins and Outs as Spending Hits £3.2BILLION
Chelsea had agreed a £55 million deal for Lamine Camara before Monaco reversed course and kept the midfielder, according to club sources.
- On Tuesday, Chelsea's deal to sign Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara collapsed in the final hour of deadline day as the French side withdrew despite a written club-to-club agreement.
- Chelsea initially had two bids for Camara rejected by Monaco, but the deal was later revived when the French side needed funds from Folarin Balogun's sale to Everton.
- Following the renegotiation of Balogun's move to Everton, Monaco no longer faced financial pressure and withdrew from the Camara transfer, which Chelsea sources described as "extraordinary."
- Monaco now believes they can secure a £70m fee for Camara, opting to keep the midfielder rather than proceed with the lower-priced transfer to Chelsea.
- Liverpool contacted both Monaco and Camara, advising them to wait until next year for a potential move, indicating the club does not want the midfielder currently.
