Carlos Baleba (Brighton & Hove Albion)
August 15, 2025
Manchester United ended their chase for Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba after learning the Seagulls’ valuation hit £115m. United deemed the price excessive, particularly given Brighton’s stance to keep him, ending any immediate chance of a summer move. The decision followed Brighton’s reference to Moises Caicedo’s record Chelsea transfer, demanding parity for Baleba. Despite Ruben Amorim’s interest, United withdrew rather than overpay. They will continue monitoring the 20-year-old across the season for future opportunities.
