Hupu reported on October 14th that according to Alex Crook, the chief reporter of the English media talkSport, the reporter wrote a column and talked about the signings of many teams. According to reports, Manchester United is paying attention to the situation of Borussia Dortmund midfielder and England U-21 international Job Bellingham.

Manchester United's goal of introducing a midfielder in the winter window of this season suffered a double blow. TalkSPORT understands that Brighton currently have no intention of selling Carlos Baleba, who Manchester United is interested in, before next summer window. Rumors that the 21-year-old was unhappy with the Seagulls and that he was pushing for a transfer were also clarified.

The Cameroon international has not had his best start to the season, with coach Fabian Schüsseler admitting that the player has been affected by transfer rumors with Manchester United. However, Brighton boss Tony Bloom believes that when the Seagulls decide to sell, Manchester United will not be the only one seeking Baleba.

Brighton's position is exactly the same as Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish's statement to talkSPORT - Crystal Palace has no financial pressure to sell England midfielder Adam Walton, who is also being watched by Manchester United. Although Amorim continues to follow Walton's development at Selhurst Park and admires the performance of the young midfielder. The Portuguese coach believes that the technical characteristics displayed by the 21-year-old Walton fully meet Manchester United's team building needs.

And another potential target of Manchester United, Dortmund's Job Bellingham, has become the latest signing target of the Red Devils. It is reported that Crystal Palace itself is also a long-term suitor of Job Bellingham.

Currently, Job Bellingham’s future in Dortmund is unclear. Manchester United intends to recruit this player. The 19-year-old player moved to Dortmund from Sunderland last summer for a total transfer fee of 32 million pounds. However, since completing the transfer, he has received relatively few playing opportunities in the team.
