Carlos Baleba Transfer
Manchester United has reached a definitive agreement to sign midfielder Carlos Baleba for £70M (including £5M in add-ons). The player will travel to complete his medical examination over the weekend and sign a 5+1-year contract. According to Fabrizio Romano, the club is not in a rush due to Baleba's injury, which will keep him sidelined for two weeks. The deal is considered a 'good deal' as it aligns with Brighton's valuation.
Alejandro Balde and Marcus Rashford
Alejandro Balde, of Barcelona, is holding talks with his agent Jorge Mendes about his future, although he is not actively seeking a move. Manchester United has expressed interest in his availability. Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford is set to remain at the club, as Premier League clubs would only consider him as an option if he stays in England.
