Manchester United are considering two midfield options as they look to complete a third midfield signing. Multiple reports say Roma’s Manu Kone and Brighton’s Carlos Baleba are both strongly considered. The interest is described as part of United’s ongoing search for an additional midfielder, with the club weighing available targets rather than committing publicly to a specific player. The reports do not confirm a bid, fee, or timeline, and they present Kone and Baleba as competing options in United’s recruitment process. Kone is linked through his role with Roma, while Baleba is linked through his time with Brighton. At this stage, the information focuses on United’s strong interest and evaluation of these two players rather than the outcome of any negotiations. Further developments depend on discussions between the clubs and the players’ availability, but no agreement is reported in the supplied coverage.
