JUST IN: Brighton Finally Bow to Man United: €95M Carlos Belaba Deal Sealed with Medically planned eminently
In a dramatic end to a long-running transfer saga, Brighton & Hove Albion have finally agreed to sell midfield sensation Carlos Belaba to Manchester United for a whopping €95 million. The 22-year-old Cameroonian star has also accepted personal terms with United, signing a lucrative contract worth €230,000 per week.
Belaba, who has been instrumental in Brighton’s midfield over the past two seasons, was a top target for several European giants, but it was United’s persistence—and financial muscle—that sealed the deal. The move comes as Erik ten Hag looks to reshape his midfield with energy, power, and technical flair.
The €95M fee represents a major profit for Brighton, who signed Belaba from Lille for under €30M in 2023. For Manchester United, this is a bold statement of intent as they aim to return to the Premier League’s summit.
Belaba is expected to undergo his medical in the coming days, with official announcements likely before the end of the week. The Red Devils believe the dynamic midfielder could be the missing piece in their puzzle—a blend of physicality and creativity they’ve long lacked since the departure of Paul Pogba.
United fans, buckle up. The Belaba era is about to begin.
