Man Utd Fired Carlos Baleba Transfer Warning by Brighton Manager

By

The young midfielder is reported to be interested in moving to Old Trafford this summer.

Brighton & Hove Albion manager Fabian Hürzeler has insisted he does not believe midfielder Carlos Baleba will join Manchester United this summer.

United are now looking at a new central midfielder after bolstering their forward line through the additions of Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Šeško, and it was revealed earlier this month that an ambitious move for 21-year-old Baleba is under consideration.

While Baleba is reported to be interested in the move, the biggest problem for United will be meeting Brighton’s demands for a player who is still under contract for three more years—the Seagulls have an option to extend for another 12 months—and is valued at over £100 million ($135.4 million).
