£55 million midfielder move desired by Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United
Share
Carlos Baleba, a young midfield player from Brighton, is attracting interest from Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer season.
According to those with direct knowledge of the situation, Brighton may accept offers of up to £55 million, and all three of Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United are keeping an eye on Baleba as they look to add a midfield player this summer.
Baleba only signed with Brighton last year, but already the 20-year-old has proven to be a valuable member of Roberto De Zerbi’s team, raising the possibility that he will be the Seagulls’ next big acquisition.
The Premier League’s top six have recently raided Brighton for players like Moises Caicedo, Alexis Mac Allister, and Leandro Trossard. Baleba appears to be a great addition for a lot of elite teams.
Where shall the young player from Brighton end up?
We are aware that Arsenal needs a midfield player, and leading candidates like Martin Zubimendi and Douglas Luiz are reportedly still being considered, but is Baleba a viable substitute at a lower cost? It seems like a fair price of £55 million, which is probably half of what Aston Villa would ask for Luiz.
Even though Liverpool made a lot of changes by adding four new players to the midfield last summer, Baleba might still be a strong choice for them as they want to overhaul their midfield once more following a challenging season.
It’s unclear when Zubimendi will become available, though, since he has openly expressed his happiness at Real Sociedad in spite of interest from Arsenal, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich.
Even though Liverpool made a lot of changes by adding four new players to the midfield last summer, Baleba might still be a strong choice for them as they want to overhaul their midfield once more following a challenging season.
With a number of ageing and underperforming players in the middle of the park, such as Christian Eriksen and Casemiro, United may need someone like Baleba the most. Meanwhile, Sofyan Amrabat, a loan signing, will not be staying at Old Trafford long; he will return to parent club Fiorentina at the end of this season.
