PLAY ONManchester United delighted with the Carlos Baleba deal. Feeling a year ago was Brighton wanted 'Moises Caicedo' type money even though a price was never offered. 12 months ago, Manchester United were prepared to pay around £75m. They now add Baleba for five million less. Baleba will sign a 5+1 contract subject to formalities.🔴

Carlos Baleba is an interesting one for NUFC. He’s not an “active” transfer as he’s a doubt for season opener with ankle issue. But he has been discussed & there are some pushing for an approach. Baleba shares an agency with Matthias Jaissle. We’re told Brighton open to offers. https://t.co/EqWEZN0Tmr
