Give up ❌TA: Manchester United will no longer pursue Baleba this summer, thinking that the amount of 115 million pounds is too high
The Athletic, Manchester United will no longer pursue Baleba this summer. According to reports, Brighton made it clear that he would not sell, and they hoped to stay at least another season for Baleba. In addition, Manchester United believes that the price of 115 million pounds against Kesedo is too high, exceeding the current level they are willing to pay. Therefore, this transaction will not be realized.
However, the transfer to Manchester United is attractive to Baleba, so personal terms are not a problem. The player is ready to continue working hard to advance the transfer, even if it means waiting until the future.
However, this does not mean that Baleba is unhappy in Brighton. The dialogue between the two sides has always been friendly and Manchester United respects their position. Although Manchester United has a strong interest, it is also clear that the player has only two seasons in the Premier League and is still growing.
Baleba is 21 years old and plays as a defensive midfielder. His current contract with Brighton expires in 2028. The player is currently worth 40 million euros.
