DO pointed out that Baleba suffered an ankle ligament injury and will miss the start of Brighton & Hove Albion's new season. Reporter Sully said that it's understandable to sympathize with Baleba, as he had dreamed of a move to Manchester United.

Sully discussed Carlos Baleba: "It's understandable to sympathize with Carlos Baleba. Last summer, he dreamed of moving to Manchester United, but the deal ultimately fell through. After a disappointing season, Brighton & Hove Albion's asking price has made it difficult for other clubs to sign him this summer, and he is likely to miss the start of the new season.

Some people within Manchester United were convinced that the club would make another attempt to sign him in February of the following year, another missed opportunity that ultimately didn't materialize."
