Carlos Baleba is, of course, the Brighton centre-midfielder Man United have shown interest in for over a year. However, it’s thought any deal to bring in the 22-year-old Cameroonian would be a costly one. Brighton, nicknamed the Seagulls, were quoted to want around £100 million last summer. Now that Elliot Anderson and Sandro Tonali have moved for that much and above, there’s a good chance the Seagulls would expect more. Man United have already added Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos to their ranks for a combined £85m.

Rumours of a £68m move for Real Madrid‘s Aurelien Tchouameni have picked up pace in the last few days and the Frenchman could indeed become Old Trafford‘s latest big name arrival. The 26-year-old would represent a true replacement for Casemiro in defensive midfield, especially with Manuel Ugarte expected to miss the majority of the season with a torn ACL. Comment now
