Manchester United reportedly want to spend a potential club-record sum on Carlos Baleba. Many wonder how such a thing could be possible for a club whose minority owner warned of a risk of insolvency.

Man United are hungry for more additions ahead of the summer transfer window closing for business on September 1.

The Manchester Evening News recently reported that United are preparing 100 million sterling pound (€115m) bid for the 21 year old. If accepted Baleba would become the most expensive signing in United’s history surpassing Paul Pogba’s 105m euro move from Juventus in 2016 and one of the biggest transfers in football history.
