Manchester United starts negotiations on Baleba! The truth of the rumor of 112 million transactions is revealed, selling 3 people will be the key to success or failure

According to Cameroon's "CFOOT", Manchester United and Brighton reached an agreement on Carlos Baleba's transfer, saying that the 21-year-old midfielder will join the Red Devils for 112 million euros. Of course, authoritative transfer experts such as Fabricio Romano, David Ornstein and Simon Stone did not mention it, and there is no doubt that this is a fabricated fake news.

CFOOT was accused of being the first to report that he transferred from Lille to Brighton in 2023, but this is not surprising. According to their rumor style this time, they always report in advance, so they can naturally win one or two times.

Italian transfer expert Romano disclosed that Manchester United is planning a deal for Baleba, but the sale of Garnacho, Anthony and Sancho will be the key to whether a higher offer can be given. Romano said: "The preparations for preliminary negotiations with Brighton are ready. Brighton hopes to keep the players and sell them again in 2026; Baleba himself is eager to transfer."

The fastest progress of the deal is the Independent, which said Manchester United is preparing to give a fixed transfer fee of 80 million pounds, plus floating terms. But as the summer transfer window is closing shorter and shorter, it is even more unlikely that Brighton will agree to a price cut. The "Seagull Legion" is accustomed to digging players, cultivating them and selling them at the highest price. Once you agree to a price cut, you will encounter bargaining every time you go.

Baleba is another successful example of Brighton's incredible scouting system, a replacement who joined after Kesedo's transfer to Chelsea at a UK transfer record price, and may now set a record. The team has also sold Bisuma and McAllister, but they can buy new players, bringing huge profits to the club.

Especially the contract with Baleba still has a "3+1" period. Brighton will not be forced to sell people with only two weeks left in the transfer window. The attitude of the price of 120 million pounds shows that the Seagulls hope to keep the player, otherwise the opponent will change the situation with a record price.

Brighton and team reporter Charlie Haffenden emphasized: "At this stage, Brighton did not agree to sell Baleba to Manchester United, but the negotiations between the two clubs have indeed happened. Manchester United initially contacted the midfielder's agent. Baleba wanted to transfer to Manchester United, but Brighton was not threatened by anyone, and whether to sell or not is up to the club to decide whether to sell."

21-year-old Baleba was one of the midfielders with the most tackles, blocking, interception and steals in the Premier League last season, and his frontcourt dribbling and front-pass data were also impressive. He participated in 36 Premier League games, started 31 times and scored 3 goals.

Manchester United and Amorin both regarded it as the perfect candidate to strengthen the midfield. However, if it is not available, it is rumored that the club has many "Plan B" candidates, such as Portuguese sports captain Morten Yurmand. The Sun said that Manchester United believes that it can get the Danish midfielder for £50 million, which is much cheaper than Baleba. In 2023, Portuguese spent £15 million to introduce Jurmand from Lecce, with a termination fee of £68 million, but the Portuguese Super League champion may agree to a price cut if necessary additional conditions are met. Amorin believes that Yurmand is a cheaper and equally close to perfect choice than Baleba because he is more familiar with his playing style. The Portuguese Super League has started in the new season. Portugal Sports defeated Casapia 2-0 on Friday, and Jurmande scored!
