Manchester United are still in pursuit of Carlos Baleba as they look to add a midfielder to their first-team squad before transfer deadline day. Ruben Amorim wants to sign a mobile midfielder in the final weeks of the window, and the 21-year-old is viewed as the perfect fit for their system.
Amorim would like to have a new mobile midfielder at the heart of his side and has a preference for players who are already proven in the Premier League. Baleba has shone during his two seasons with Brighton and is viewed as a player with enormous potential who could play a key role across the coming years.
Brighton have made it clear they do not intend to sell Baleba in the current window and will only sanction a sale if it matches their valuation of the player. Early indications suggest it could be in the region of £100 million, though that could be the overall value of the package, with a smaller initial transfer fee.
With that in mind, here is a look at what United's midfield options could be for the coming season.
