Man United’s Interest in Brighton’s Carlos Baleba…
Manchester United can’t stop daydreaming about Carlos Baleba, but it seems they’ll have to hit snooze on this transfer until next year. Brighton values their midfielder at a cool £100 million, which is just slightly more than the cost of a private island filled with gold-plated tacos. While Baleba is itching for an Old Trafford move, he’s happy waiting till next year, giving United the upper hand over other suitors.
In the meantime, Brighton happily saw Baleba take the field in their Premier League opener. It’s clear they’re hoping for another financial miracle after Moises Caicedo’s sale to Chelsea. United, after splurging £200 million on new players, are like shopaholics eyeing their next big purchase but knowing they must wait for payday. According to Fabrizio Romano, Brighton has locked the exit door tighter than a castle moat, but United remains smitten and plans to keep Baleba as a top target.
