Brighton coach asked Baleba to discuss his condition, not only because of Manchester United, but he also suffered from a knee injury

Hupu reported on October 23 that Sun Black reporter Rahman Osman exclusively reported that Carlos Baleba had a key meeting with Brighton coach because Schüsseler believed that he was in poor condition.

The 21-year-old midfielder has been in poor form this season after the Red Devils held talks with Brighton over a summer transfer. He has been substituted at half-time three times this season, a clear sign that the Cameroon star is not in good form.

According to "The Sun", Manchester United is paying close attention to Baleba's situation, but he has assured Schüzeler of his commitment to the club.

We can reveal that his on-field woes do not stem solely from speculation about his future.

Behind the scenes, Baleba has been battling a knee injury, which has affected his pre-season preparations.

This injury limited his physical fitness level in the new season and also affected his confidence and stability at the beginning of the season.

What is encouraging is that Baleba seems to be finding his form again. In Brighton's last two games against Wolves and Newcastle, he showed signs of returning to his prime.

He performed particularly well against the Magpies, helping Brighton achieve a crucial 2-1 victory. The game is widely regarded as his best of the season so far.

Although Baleba's condition has improved, speculations about his future are still endless. According to sources, Manchester United's top brass are still very interested in signing Baleba.

The Red Devils failed to meet Brighton's asking price this summer, but with the midfielder still being a key position for the team, they are expected to reconsider whether to sign him.
