Man Utd Launch £130m Transfer Blitz for Baleba & Donnarumma
The transfer window at Old Trafford is reaching boiling point as INEOS accelerate a £130 million double swoop that could reshape Manchester United before the deadline.
Carlos Baleba of Brighton and Gianluigi Donnarumma of PSG are now the two names at the top of Rúben Amorim’s wishlist — and negotiations for both are moving at pace.
Baleba: United’s Midfield Engine in Waiting
Brighton’s 20-year-old powerhouse has caught the eye of Manchester City, but United believe they hold the trump card: a guaranteed starting role in Amorim’s rebuild. With Bruno Fernandes pulling the strings and Kobbie Mainoo emerging as a star, Baleba’s box-to-box drive and ball-winning grit could complete the midfield puzzle.
Donnarumma: The New No.1
Talks with PSG over a €35m deal for Donnarumma are already advanced. At just 26, the Italian is seen as United’s long-term goalkeeper — no loan, no stopgap — with a multi-year contract ready to go once terms are agreed.
A Statement of Intent
Securing one of Europe’s brightest young midfielders and one of the world’s elite goalkeepers in one window would send a clear signal: the INEOS era means business. Sir Jim Ratcliffe is arming Amorim for an immediate push to restore United’s status among football’s elite.
Old Trafford is on edge — the next few days could define the dawn of a new Red Devils era.
