The Blues were determined to land Camara as a replacement for Enzo Fernandez, who was sold to Manchester City earlier this month.

They had a verbal agreement in place for the Senegal international, but Monaco pulled the plug on the deal before the transfer deadline. The French outfit believed Folarin Balogun was on his way to Everton on a permanent transfer and did not want to lose Camara alongside him.

Balogun decided against joining Everton, who had concerns over his injury record. It is now claimed that Camara could be on the move this winter, and Liverpool are reportedly the prime contenders to land his services.
