Galatasaray is reportedly planning a lucrative offer for Carlos Baleba, a target for Manchester United. The midfielder, previously scouted by United, faces competition as the Turkish club aims to strengthen its squad following a successful season in the Süper Lig. Despite United having initial interest, the club has not returned to Brighton & Hove Albion with a proposal. Sources indicate Baleba remains keen on joining United but the situation has cooled on their end, particularly with other targets proving more elusive. Galatasaray is also exploring a loan option for Baleba with an included buy-clause, although Brighton is expected to reject such an approach in favor of a higher fee.
