Manchester United are pursuing a future transfer for Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba and considered a summer bid that Brighton rejected while demanding more than £100 million. The club is willing to break its transfer record to sign a top-quality midfielder, with Adam Wharton and Morten Hjulmand also on the shortlist. Manchester United have not closed all avenues to a potential André Onana exit, with transfer windows in Turkey and Saudi Arabia presenting options and the situation described as fluid. Onana's position has been weakened by the arrival of Belgian youth international Senne Lammens. Trabzonspor are evaluating a move for Manchester City goalkeeper Stefan Ortega.
The Red Devils were considering a bid in the summer, but Brighton were demanding more than £100 million as they didn't want to lose the Cameroon international. However, the "next phase" of Ruben Amorim's squad rebuild could see 21-year-old Baleba emerge as the club's top target, while Adam Wharton ( Crystal Palace) and Morten Hjulmand ( Sporting CP) have also been shortlisted.
Manchester United have not "closed all avenues" to a potential André Onana exit, according to TEAMTalk. Several transfer windows around the world remain open, most notably in Turkey and Saudi Arabia, presenting a possible opportunity for the out-of-favour stopper. While a move isn't said to be imminent, the situation remains fluid and could change over the following weeks. Onana's future at Man United has been thrown into fresh doubt following the arrival of Belgian youth international Senne Lammens from Antwerp.
