A MU fans set up a Gofundme fundraising page, with bold ambition to help the club recruit midfielder Carlos Baleba from Brighton.
According to the Daily Mail, a Man United fan cleverly opened the Gofundme page, calling for donations to support the club in the BaleBa recruitment deal, the midfielder currently wearing Brighton.
Although Man United is studying the conditions to conduct this deal, sources say the possibility of the deal is very low because Brighton does not want to sell and the required fee for this player is also very high.
The person behind the fundraising campaign is a fans named Ian M, currently aiming to mobilize £ 120 million, an extremely ambitious figure. It is known that the most successful donation campaign on Gofundme has only earned nearly £ 34 million, called “America's Food Fund”.
The call on the Gofundme page is written emotionally: “We need this to happen, we need this to happen, we need this to happen, we need this to happen.”
By the time the article was posted, Ian could only raise funds … 5 pounds.
Although continuing to pursue the BaleBa deal, it is unclear whether Man United is really successful in recruiting this talented young midfielder. It is known that the Old Trafford team welcomed rookies Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon this summer.
Yesterday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the Red Devils had reached personal agreement with striker Benjamin Sesko of RB Leipzig. MU is currently negotiating the transfer price with the German club.
