Manchester United were linked with a move for the Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba during the summer transfer window, but they were not able to get the deal done.

The 21-year-old remains a target for Manchester United going forward, and their chances of signing the African have now increased.

According to a report from The Mirror, Manchester United’s recent financial results indicate their financial power, and it will allow them to bring in quality signings in future. They have brought in £164 million in revenues for the fourth quarter, and their annual income reached a record-breaking £666.5 million.

They are now in a strong position regarding PSR regulations, and therefore, they could make a renewed offer to sign Baleba in the coming months. The 21-year-old is a tremendous talent with a bright future, and he could transform Manchester United in the middle of the park.

Baleba could fancy a move

It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer in January. Convincing the midfielder will not be difficult. There are rumours that the player is keen on the move. It would be a huge step up in his career, and he would get to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world. Manchester United could provide him with the platform to compete in Europe in future and fight for trophies.

Even though he has done quite well for Brighton, he cannot hope to win major trophies with them in the future. The Seagulls will not want to lose a talented young player like him, but they will be forced to sell if a substantial offer is presented. In addition to that, the midfielder could force an exit as well.

It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. It is evident that Manchester United have the financial muscle to get the deal across the line, and they will certainly hope to get the deal done. They have not been able to control games in the middle of the park, and signing the 21-year-old will add physicality, technical ability, and drive to the side. He is a hardworking midfielder who will drive the team forward and help out defensively as well.
