insider Transfer News: Baleba expected at Man Utd, Martinelli shock, Alvarez latest Make us your Google favourite insider reveals the latest on Carlos Baleba to Man Utd, Tottenham's pursuit of Savinho, Gabriel Martinelli 's future, Ismaïla Sarr, Nico Gonzalez and Julian Alvarez. Man Utd push ahead with Carlos Baleba deal Romano confirmed that Manchester United have made another move in their pursuit of Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba. “Manchester United have opened our day on the market by submitting an official bid for Carlos Baleba. Around £65 million, still not enough to convince Brighton. But the expectation is today, Thursday, to see Manchester United returning to the table of negotiations and trying to close the deal for Carlos Baleba,” he told his YouTube channel. “So let's see if it's going to happen already this week, ahead of the Premier League opening matchday. But the deal is absolutely well underway for Carlos Baleba to Manchester United. There is an expectation they will reach an agreement quite soon. “The agreement with the player is fully done and completed, and with his agents, as I told you, the dream of the player is very clear. Carlos Baleba has been pushing and pushing to go to Manchester United. “One year ago, the deal was not possible for now because Brighton at that time didn't want to open the doors for Carlos Baleba to join Manchester United. “But Manchester United are in love with the player, and Manchester United decided to go for him. So now the deal is on the right way. The expectation is to get it done.” Ederson explains why Man Utd transfer collapsed Romano also addressed Ederson's comments about the breakdown of his proposed move to Manchester United. He explained: “Ederson said the deal was done with Manchester United, everything was agreed, he did the medical, it was fine. Then, ‘I don't know what happened’. “Manchester United were pointing at medical tests. The feeling of those involved in the deal on the player side has always been that Manchester United changed their mind. “So we can only respect these two points of view. The player today was speaking for the very first time about that and was quite surprised. But Manchester United already decided to move on.” Man Utd could make two more signings Romano says Manchester United's transfer business is not finished once Baleba arrives, with further additions possible before the window closes. “Manchester United signed Senne Lammens, and the expectation is for the next one to be Carlos Baleba. But Manchester United are not done yet on the market,” he said. “This is the way to go for a left-back, and let's see what happens up front if Joshua Zirkzee leaves. So it could be two more signings after Baleba for Manchester United. “One left-back, I would say, is almost guaranteed, and then one more striker only if Zirkzee leaves.” Tottenham maintain Savinho interest Tottenham are continuing to work on several attacking options, with Savinho still their priority on the wing. “Talking about more opportunities, keep a close eye on Tottenham because Tottenham are working on several opportunities. I always told you here on the channel, in all my videos, two wingers plus a striker,” Romano said. “The winger wanted by Tottenham remains Savinho or Pedro Neto if the Savinho deal doesn't work. So one between Savinho and Pedro Neto, but the priority is Savinho. “There have been contacts today between Tottenham and Manchester City about Savinho. Also about Omar Marmoush. I expect more conversations. “On the other wing, Cody Gakpo from Liverpool. These are the two wingers they want at the club. “Then, at centre-forward, Omar Marmoush is an option. Nico Jackson is an option. I don't have any confirmation on the name of Viktor Gyokeres that was going around in the recent days and weeks. “So this is the situation about Tottenham.” Al Hilal join Tottenham in Pedro Neto race Saudi Pro League outfit Al Hilal are also exploring the same winger market as Tottenham, with Chelsea's Pedro Neto among their options. “Let me bring to the table also Al Hilal, because Al Hilal are also in the race for a winger,” Romano said. “So now, when you arrive at the final weeks of the window, it's quite obvious that the same players are targets for both clubs, because when these kind of clubs are looking with the same kind of budget to the same kind of player, it's obvious that they are managing similar options. “So Pedro Neto is
