Manchester United fans are waiting to see if the club do more in the transfer market before the deadline.
A poor midfield performance was the main cause of Manchester United’s problems versus Fulham.
Casemiro grew weary and was replaced, while Bruno Fernandes fought. Nor was Manuel Ugarte able to make any difference. Once more, Kobbie Mainoo was disregarded.
United has one week left to make a change during the transfer window.
Is it possible that a last-ditch move for Carlos Baleba would help United and possibly Brighton as well?
Carlos Baleba struggles for Brighton
Brighton lost to Everton 2-0 on the road just before Manchester United was struggling to a 1-1 draw with Fulham.
Carlos Baleba had a memorable game; his team was behind 1-0 after forty-five minutes when he was hooked. Before being removed, Baleba was only allowed to make 17 touches.
With Manchester United showing interest, the 21-year-old played as if he had been sidetracked by the continuous transfer rumors.
The Red Devils were willing to pay a club record fee for the midfield player, but Brighton rejected Manchester United’s offer.
Even though he didn’t play like a player worth £100 million or even close to that against Everton, his performance might provide Brighton with a problem that Manchester United could ultimately resolve.
Late move could benefit United and Baleba
Brighton must try to refocus Carlos Baleba if his attention has been diverted by the frequent communication between United and his agents.
However, if a shrewd team like Brighton decides to cash in on Baleba, they might also see the lucrative potential that remains.
Baleba’s worth would drastically decline by the time the next transfer market opens if he continued to play like he did against Everton every week. Furthermore, United might not even be interested.
Before the transfer window ends, Manchester United might be wise to get in touch with Brighton again in an attempt to salvage a deal.
A demanding schedule puts pressure on Ruben Amorim, who needs results. Baleba might also require a change based on his most recent performance.
United must accept the risk if Brighton is persuaded to change their mind about their “not for sale” position.
