Hupu, August 7, well-known reporter Romano posted a video on his personal youtube channel, talking about the latest progress in Manchester United's transfer.

About Benjamin Sheshko

Manchester United and Leipzig are in direct dialogue to push forward the deal. The two sides are close to reaching an agreement. Last night, Sheshko had told the club that he accepted Manchester United's personal terms. This means: Sheshko is getting closer to joining Manchester United, and everything is moving in a good direction!

Manchester United also wants to buy a midfielder

In addition to the striker, Manchester United is also looking for a midfielder. The target player is Carlos Baleba of Brighton. United contacted the Baleba team in recent hours to express clear interest, but it was a very difficult deal. Brighton did not want to let go and regarded Baleba as his core member. In addition, with only more than 20 days left in the transfer window, Brighton's asking price will be very high.

The current situation is like this. First of all, Manchester United did contact the Baleba team. Secondly, the players did not reject Manchester United, nor did they say "no" because they did not have the qualifications for European competition. However, Brighton was tough and did not sell, so the negotiation was extremely difficult.

A detail worth mentioning is that when Ruben Amorin first joined Manchester United, the most emphasized word was intensity. What he wants is a midfielder with good physical fitness and rhythm, and Baleba is one of the candidates who meet his requirements.
