🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has finally acknowledged the growing speculation linking midfielder Carlos Baleba with a potential move to Manchester United.
After substituting the young Cameroonian at half-time in Brighton’s clash against Tottenham Hotspur, questions immediately began to swirl about whether the decision was tactical — or influenced by the transfer storm brewing around the 20-year-old.
Speaking after the game, De Zerbi admitted: “Carlos is a special player. Of course, I’m aware of Manchester United’s interest, but for now he remains our player. I substituted him because I wanted to change the balance of the midfield, not because of anything else. But I can’t deny he is attracting attention.”
This admission has set United fans buzzing with excitement. Baleba, who joined Brighton from Lille in 2023, has quickly developed into one of the most dynamic and versatile midfielders in the Premier League. With his ability to break up play, carry the ball with power, and dictate tempo from deep, many believe he could be the missing piece in United’s midfield puzzle.
United’s struggles this season have often been linked to inconsistency in the middle of the park. The addition of a young, energetic talent like Baleba could provide balance alongside the experienced Casemiro and the creative Bruno Fernandes. Fans are already dreaming that this move could transform United’s fortunes, with some boldly claiming it might finally pave the way for the club to lift silverware again.
Baleba’s potential arrival is being described as striking “gold.” If United manage to secure his signature, it could be the turning point in their campaign, injecting both quality and hunger into the squad. For now, negotiations remain uncertain, but the Red Devils’ pursuit of Baleba looks very real — and very promising.
