Hurzeler Talks Baleba and United’s Plans…
Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler faced a barrage of questions about Manchester United target Carlos Baleba ahead of their clash with Fulham. Bright-eyed and bullish, Hurzeler declared the £100 million dream fee for Baleba to be a myth as elusive as a unicorn riding a roller coaster. Despite early attempts to join Brighton’s midfield by juggling billion-dollar bills, Manchester United has parked their interest, opting to renew talks next year. With Baleba signed until 2028 and maintaining his infamous ‘game face’, Hurzeler is confident he’ll remain put.
Hurzeler assured fans that Baleba only thing to change was his hairstyle, not his desire to leave Brighton—his hair’s been a buzz around town. It seems the only people going anywhere are the physios, working magic on players as if they were pulling rabbits out of hats. While United delays its plans, the Seagulls’ coach put faith in the young Cameroonian, hoping his roster’s current good health holds against Fulham. Roll on, Premier League, and stay tuned for more football fantastico!
