Carlos Baleba Noom Quomah could become the fourth Cameroonian descent player at Manchester United if they pull the trigger and get him Brighton and Hove Albion.
Multiple sources are reporting that, Manchester United have opened talks with Brighton over a move for 21-year-old Baleba in this summer after recruiting his compatriots Enzo Kana-Biyik and Bryan Mbeumo.
Widely regarded as one of the Premier League’s top young talents, Baleba is now the subject of an ambitious push from the Red Devils, who are also closing in on a big-money deal for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko.
Reports on Wednesday have it that, United want to sign Baleba from Brighton and have reached out to their Premier League rivals who don’t want to sell Baleba but could let him go if their asking price is met.
The report adds that Seagulls are open to initial talks, but the 21-year-old is expected to command a fee of around €100 million (£87m/$116m).
“There is always going to be interest in our players. Manchester United have not been in touch with me. Speculation is speculation. Carlos is a fantastic talent. We hope he will be here for years to come, but it is subject to the dynamics of the football world, which isn’t always predictable,” Brighton CEO Paul Barber reacted to the situation a few days ago.
Baleba is a close friend of United’s Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana, plus international colleague with Bryan Mbeumo and very good friend to Manchester United defender, Leny Yoro – with whom he played at Lille in his breakthrough season
