"I think it'd be concerning for Manchester United if they are sort of monitoring that situation. Carlos Baleba is a top player. Man United inquired about him in the summer and Brighton's price tag of around 100million scared United off. United still firmly have him on the radar probably for next summer rather than the January window and if Liverpool are in the market for a central-defensive midfielder, I'm sure Baleba will be someone who's also on their list as well."
"The Reds could certainly use more quality and depth in the middle of the park, and Baleba would be an exceptional acquisition. He is regarded as one of the finest young talents in the Premier League right now. Liverpool have the finances to get the deal across the line, and the player could be tempted to join them as well. They are the Premier League champions, and they have been fighting for major trophies consistently."
Carlos Baleba was heavily linked with Manchester United in the summer but the club failed to complete a deal. Manchester United remain keen on the 21-year-old midfielder and could return for him in January, though the club may target him next summer. Brighton reportedly set a price tag around £100 million that deterred United. Liverpool are also monitoring Baleba and the player reportedly visited Anfield. Liverpool can offer Champions League football and possess the finances to meet Brighton’s valuation. Baleba is regarded as one of the Premier League’s top young midfield talents.
