Folarin Balogun’s move to Everton triggers an Arsenal payout

Folarin Balogun is set to join Everton, with Arsenal holding a 17.5% sell-on clause from his original sale to AS Monaco. Balogun came through Arsenal’s academy before moves to Middlesbrough, then Reims, and eventually Monaco, where he developed into a regular Ligue 1 scorer. That clause means any fee Everton pay Monaco now sends a meaningful cut back to the Emirates, even though Balogun has not worn an Arsenal shirt in senior football for some time.
Brooke Norton-Cuffy set for Hull City move

Brooke Norton-Cuffy is closing in on a move to Hull City, with Arsenal also set to profit here thanks to a 20% sell-on clause included in his original exit. Norton-Cuffy came through Arsenal’s youth system before a series of loan spells and an eventual permanent move to Genoa, and now looks set for a switch to English football with Hull as deadline day activity ramps up.
Neither deal involves Arsenal directly in the negotiations, but both are a reminder of how much value a well-structured sell-on clause can generate long after a player has left the building. With Arsenal continuing to be linked with further business of their own before the window shuts, an unexpected £10 million landing in the club’s account today is a welcome bit of housekeeping regardless of how the rest of deadline day unfolds.
