Manchester United plans to sign Baleba next year! It is not affected by whether Amorin was dismissed, but it is believed that it is not worth 100 million

According to British media reports, Brighton's Carlos Baleba is still Manchester United's first choice candidate when rebuilding the midfield lineup next year. This is not affected by the coaching position of current coach Ruben Amorin, but the club still has doubts about Baleba's transfer fee of hundreds of millions. TEAMtalk's Fraser Fletcher reported that inside Old Trafford, people were very worried about Amorin's future. Sources revealed that the coach looked exhausted at the moment and he knew that his management style would not work at all. Therefore, Amorin's dismissal is not an exaggeration.

However, who the coach is, it will not affect Manchester United's plan to sign Baleba. The club took the initiative to contact Brighton this summer and knew that the latter would refuse to negotiate this potential transfer deal. But Manchester United still believes that such an attempt is necessary. They hope the player can understand that Manchester United is very serious about getting him, and at the same time, it also shows Brighton that he still has the possibility of buying again in the future.

Brighton believes that Baleba's market value is at least £100 million, and this valuation is expected to remain unchanged during next year's transfer window. Especially because they learned that there are several clubs interested in Baleba. Among them, rumors include the defending Premier League champion Liverpool.

Manchester United is very eager to recruit the 21-year-old Cameroon midfielder, but they have several other potential midfield targets on their roster.

Adam Walton of Crystal Palace, Elliot Anderson of Nottingham Forest, Gallagher of Atletico Madrid and Yehall Yarmoluk of Brentford are also on Manchester United's inspection list. Manchester United plans to introduce two midfielders in 2026, one will join in January and the other will be in place next summer. Sir Jim Ratcliffe's Inez management team hopes to introduce Premier League players to ensure that new players can adapt to their role in the team's reconstruction more smoothly.

Amorin believes that Baleba is very suitable for his 343 tactical system requirements, but Manchester United believes that even if the head coach is replaced, Baleba will be able to use it. At the same time, La Jue and other club executives are willing to continue to invest in the team.

However, one of the main problems is that Manchester United believes that Baleba is not worth £100 million at this stage, especially the trend of its decline in performance at the beginning of this season. Therefore, Manchester United needs to make sure that the deal is financially feasible.

Italian transfer expert Fabricio Romano confirmed that Manchester United is paying close attention to Baleba's movements because both the management and scout team appreciate him very much. If Amorin is dismissed, it will definitely have a certain impact on the signing, but it will not prevent the club from continuing to consider buying Baleba unless the new coach clearly objected to introducing him.

Brighton's contract with the player will last until 2028, plus one-year priority renewal rights, so he is in a favorable position. Even if Baleba's performance is average this season, the "Seagulls" will not cut the price casually. So Manchester United is very clear that once the negotiations really begin, it will be very difficult.

According to rumors, Manchester United is preparing to clean up four players to help raise funds to introduce Baleba, including Casemiro, Sancho, Tyrell Maracia and Tom Heaton, whose total salary in a season is as high as £35 million.
