Liverpool remain interested in signing Lamine Camara, and AS Monaco manager Thiago Scuro has made some interesting comments about the midfielder’s transfer future. AS Monaco cancel Lamine Camara-Chelsea deal after a written agreement between clubs, as they proceed with Balogun sale to Everton. ??

Liverpool have reportedly told Camara that they will return for him in January or next summer, and Scuro appears to have referenced this in his Monaco press conference today. Camara apparently asked to leave Monaco, but Scuro has since spoken to the 22-year-old and promised him that he would secure a major transfer “very soon” and may “even better options than he did yesterday.” Camara will now return to action for Monaco will likely be difficult to mentally wrap his head around given the excitement and then disappointment of the transfer to Chelsea, but is reportedly fully committed.

An interesting press conference with Monaco sporting director Thiago Scuro has shed further light on the collapse of Lamine Camara's proposed move to Chelsea. I can’t understand why Liverpool – if they had the money to sign Minteh or Sarr for over £60m – couldn’t sign Camara, particularly when it became clear that the Senegal international was made available by Monaco.
