Transfer: Man Utd Agree £60m Deal For Baleba

Manchester United are close to reaching a full agreement with Brighton for the signing of midfielder Carlos Baleba.

The Cameroon international is expected to sign a five-year contract with Manchester United once he completes his medical tests and the transfer is officially finalised.

According to Sky Sports, the final transfer fee and payment structure have not yet been completely agreed. However, the deal is expected to be worth more than £60 million.

Baleba is reportedly preparing to travel to Manchester as the transfer moves closer to completion.

Manchester United have been interested in the midfielder since last year and previously made an enquiry about signing him during the January transfer window.

The 22-year-old has remained one of the club’s main transfer targets this summer.
