Folarin Balogun experienced a major setback in his recovery from a shoulder injury that will keep the Monaco and USMNT striker off the pitch for months.

With United States striker Folarin Balogun injured, Monaco manager Adi Hütter said he is looking for an extra striker in January to give the team more firepower up front.

The Monaco squad is filled with young talented players but has only two strikers available at the moment, Breel Embolo and George Ilenikhena. Balogun will undergo surgery on his recently dislocated shoulder on Tuesday and Monaco coach Adi Hütter said he will be out of action for about four months.

Manager Adi Hutter has confirmed the U.S. international will miss the next four months of competition as a result of shoulder surgery
