Manchester United has designed a double operation in the market that could revolutionize its squad this summer. With the arrival of Benjamin Sesko in an advanced stage, the 'Red Devils' already have clear what the next move will be: to go for Carlos Baleba, the powerful midfielder from Brighton. The intention of the Old Trafford club is clear, and they only await finalizing the striker from Leipzig to launch an offensive that brings them closer to the Cameroonian international, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

Ruben Amorim, newly installed in the dugout of the Mancunians, has identified two critical areas that need immediate reinforcements: a '9' with scoring ability and a midfielder with physical deployment and technique. With the first objective almost secured, the focus now turns to Baleba, who has made an impact since landing in the Premier League. His performance with Brighton has been so solid that the southern English club does not want to part with him this summer, except for an irresistible offer.

Manchester United goes for Baleba signing

United's interest has already been communicated through intermediaries, aware of the difficulty negotiating with a Brighton that has protected the player until 2028, with the option of an extra year. Baleba is not only a key piece of the team but also a strategic investment for the future, so his price could easily exceed 40 million pounds.

In parallel, internal movements at United also influence this operation. Casemiro could experience his last months at the club, while youngsters like Toby Collyer consider temporary exits. The sports management wants to find in Baleba a profile capable of projecting long-term and contributing immediately in Amorim's demanding system.

Baleba comes from a brilliant campaign, playing 40 matches and leaving his mark both defensively and offensively. His impact has been such that other clubs are also closely monitoring him, but United wants to outpace them all. The next week could be crucial to define whether they will make a formal offer or if they will have to wait for another summer to sign one of the most sought-after promises in the Premier League.
