Does Carlos Baleba complete Man United’s...

THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

Talk of the Devils streamed live to the four corners of the globe for the first time on the eve of the 2026/27 Premier League season.

The headline news is that a deal is progressing between Manchester United and Brighton for the transfer of defensive midfielder Carlos Baleba. The Athletic's David Ornstein reported 'amicable' negotiations on Wednesday, and Carl is happy, but will the transfer dealings end with an agreement for this long-term target.

Baleba won't face Hull City with the rest of Michael Carrick's squad, we can be fairly certain of that, but there are high hopes of an emphatic United win as the Tigers return to the top tier for the first time in a decade.
