Manchester United Pursuing Brighton’s Carlos Baleba

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Manchester United is reportedly making progress in negotiations to sign Carlos Baleba, a midfielder from Brighton. This potential acquisition would add to a limited number of signings made by the club this close-season.

The Press Association understands that Manchester United are progressing in talks with Brighton regarding a deal for long-standing midfield target Carlos Baleba. The club has been relatively inactive in the transfer market this close-season, with few additions to the squad.

So far this close-season, Manchester United has only made three signings: Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans, and Karl Darlow, all completed in mid-July. The pursuit of Baleba suggests an attempt to further bolster the midfield options under the guidance of Michael Carrick, the club's manager.
