Manchester United have had a productive summer transfer window and are looking to add a defensive midfielder, with Carlos Baleba as their top target. However, Brighton's asking price of 100m poses financial challenges, leading to United dropping their pursuit of Baleba for the summer. Baleba is not pushing to leave Brighton, maintaining his commitment to stay for at least another season, benefitting the Seagulls in their Premier League aspirations. Meanwhile, United must consider other options to strengthen their squad while balancing financial expenditure.

"Diego is an exciting addition for the club," said Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler. "Although he is still young, he is tall, strong and mobile and he will give us a real physical presence."
