Baleba linked move could boost United

Manchester United are being urged to pursue Carlos Baleba as a potential midfield upgrade with far reaching implications.

Baleba move could lift United into title race

Manchester United have spent heavily this summer already signing Cunha Mbeumo and Sesko in a bid to strengthen their midfield and attack. Baleba from Brighton has emerged as a top target who could upgrade the middle of the park for years to come. While nothing is confirmed, talk of a move is active and United are pushing to close the deal this window.

Baleba is seen by supporters and scouts as a dynamic midfielder with mobility and energy. If he joins, the balance of the midfield could shift and Bruno Fernandes might be freed to influence the attacking phase more regularly. Yet the price and long term fit are important questions for a club that has already spent close to two hundred million this window. The decision will test United's approach to risk and reward and could set the tone for the season ahead.
