Man United’s Quest for Baleba Intensifies…
In a twist that would make a soap opera jealous, Rio Ferdinand has taken to social media to declare Manchester United’s urgent need to sign Carlos Baleba. The 21-year-old Brighton midfielder is gaining more attention than a cat video hitting a million views. Ferdinand exclaimed that United should act quickly to secure Baleba, following a flurry of summer signings. According to ESPN, if United want Baleba, they better hand over a whopping €120 million. Imagine if that cash could buy every fan a lifetime supply of popcorn! United were reportedly thinking of including Toby Collyer in a swap deal, but Manchester Evening News insists Collyer isn’t involved at all.
Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano chimed in, saying United have been chatting with Baleba’s agents about contracts like they’re setting up a playdate. Ferdinand has already visualized a strengthened attack, calling for more agility in United’s front line—as if they were gearing up for an outdoor soccer ballet. United’s fans wait eagerly, wondering who’s next to saunter through the door like the latest contestant on a reality TV show. With Ruben Amorim tasked to craft this team into champions, the excitement is bubbling faster than a can of soda on a hot day.
