Brighton and Hove Albion manager Fabian Hurzeler is "very, very confident" that Manchester United target Carlos Baleba will remain at the club this summer. The Red Devils are eyeing an audacious swoop for Baleba, but there is an acceptance among all parties that a deal is incredibly difficult to do.

B RIGHTON HEAD COACH Fabian Hurzeler is “very, very, very confident” Carlos Baleba will remain at the club despite being linked with a move to Manchester United.

Manchester United are reportedly willing to wait until next summer to sign Carlos Baleba, with a deal for the Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder 'unlikely' before the end of the current market. Baleba, 21, is Man United's leading target at this stage of proceedings, with the club working to sign a central midfielder before the September deadline.
