Manchester United remain interested in signing Carlos Baleba from Brighton in 2026.
They were keen on securing his signature during the summer transfer window, but the Seagulls were not prepared to sanction his departure. According to Football Insider, Manchester United are keeping tabs on the player, and Baleba remains on their radar for the future.
They are likely to make a move for him at the end of the season instead of the January transfer window. It remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.
Man United set to return for Carlos Baleba
Pete O’Rourke claims: “Carlos Baleba is a top player. Man United inquired about him in the summer, and Brighton’s price tag of around £100million scared United off. “United still firmly have him on the radar probably for next summer rather than the January window.”
The 21-year-old has all the tools to develop into a complete central midfielder. Baleba could help Manchester United improve immensely. Baleba could prove to be an upgrade on most of their current midfield options. However, he will be an expensive acquisition, and he could cost in excess of £100 million.
