Carlos Baleba, the 21-year-old Cameroon and Brighton midfielder (contract until 2028), has been announced as Paris Saint-Germain’s target for the transfer window. PSG Inside Actus claims this Tuesday that it will be very difficult to close, since the player has another preference for his future and the price set is very high.
“Baleba seems to have made a clear choice”
“Despite PSG’s clear interest, the Parisian club is lagging behind significantly in this matter, facing fierce competition from Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, and even Italian clubs like AC Milan and Inter. Brighton, far from being under financial pressure, seems determined to keep its star prospect, even if an offer of over £115 million (nearly €139 million) were to arrive.
For his part, Baleba seems to have made a clear choice: to continue his development in the Premier League. Several sources have mentioned his desire to stay in order to play in the Champions League—an ambition that could involve a transfer to an English club that has already qualified or Brighton’s emergence on the European stage.”
Unfortunately, nothing is impossible, since the Premier League is always a very attractive championship. The midfielder left Lille in 2023 and is gradually establishing himself in England. A return to Ligue 1 isn’t necessarily in his plans. Even if it’s to sign for PSG, which could help. Except that there seems to be interest from some of England’s biggest names, a certainly enticing prospect.
For the moment, there’s nothing to be confident about this. It’s just a rumor; we’ll have to wait for certainty. Except that there hasn’t been anything else in the way of a transfer to PSG either. Perhaps that’s already a thing to forget.
