🚨BREAKING NEWS: Manchester United have finally got their man! Sir Jim Ratcliffe has given the green light for a sensational £100m (€112m) deal to bring highly-rated midfielder Carlos Baleba to Old Trafford.
After weeks of tense negotiations with Brighton, both clubs have now reached a full agreement, and the Cameroon international is expected to put pen to paper in the coming hours.
The 20-year-old midfield powerhouse has been on United’s radar since the start of the transfer window, with Erik ten Hag and sporting director Dan Ashworth identifying him as the perfect addition to strengthen the midfield. Known for his aggressive ball-winning ability, intelligent positioning, and tireless work rate, Baleba is seen as the ideal long-term replacement for Casemiro and a major upgrade in United’s engine room.
Ratcliffe, who has taken an active role in United’s transfer business this summer, was determined to land a marquee signing to send a strong message to rivals. Despite Brighton’s reluctance to sell, United’s persistence paid off as they finally convinced the Seagulls with a blockbuster package worth €112m. The deal makes Baleba one of the most expensive signings in Manchester United’s history, joining the likes of Paul Pogba, Antony, and Jadon Sancho in the elite bracket.
Baleba’s arrival is expected to inject much-needed dynamism and steel into United’s midfield ahead of the new Premier League season. Fans have already taken to social media to celebrate the signing, describing him as a “monster in the making” and “the type of player United have been crying out for.”
With medicals scheduled in the next 24 hours, all that remains is for Baleba to be officially unveiled as a Red Devil. 🔴🔥 Manchester United are cooking—and the Premier League is on notice!
