"According to a report from TEAMtalk, United are interested in signing Brighton goalkeeper Carl Rushworth, who is currently on loan at Frank Lampard's Coventry City. The Seagulls are considering making Rushworth their number one goalkeeper next season, with current stopper Bart Verbruggen attracting interest from the likes of Tottenham."
"Manchester United are eyeing another Brighton star in Baleba, who could be available for a fee of around £75m in the summer. Whether the Red Devils could complete a double Brighton deal remains to be seen, but it won't be easy for them to prise both away from the club."
"On one hand, it's a positive sign that the Seagulls rate Rushworth enough to potentially sanction the sale of Verbruggen and bring him in as a number one. On the other hand, Brighton reportedly believe he is a 'highly-rated' goalkeeper, and that could mean it's tricky for United to get him for a reasonable fee."
Manchester United are interested in signing both Carlos Baleba and Carl Rushworth from Brighton ahead of the summer transfer window. Baleba, a midfielder, could be available for approximately £75 million. Rushworth, currently on loan at Coventry City, has accumulated over 200 games on loan and Brighton considers him ready for a step up as their potential number one goalkeeper. Brighton may sell current goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen to clubs like Tottenham, creating space for Rushworth. United seek midfield reinforcements and goalkeeper options as they prepare to back a new permanent manager beyond Michael Carrick's interim deal. Brighton rates Rushworth highly, which could complicate negotiations and make securing both players challenging for United.
