Reporter: Manchester United regards Walton as a replacement for Baleba, but the transfer may be extremely low this summer and requires 100 million pounds
According to reporter Graeme Bailey, despite the failure to pursue Brighton midfielder Baleba, Manchester United did not give up their midfield reinforcement plan, and they were looking at Crystal Palace midfielder Walton.
reported that Manchester United viewed Walton as a replacement for Baleba and had asked this week and are considering taking the next move. United have been following Walton for a long time and think he can bring something different to the team. However, this deal will be very difficult, especially in the context of Tottenham's intention to sign Crystal Palace attacker Eze, the possibility of Walton's transfer this summer is extremely low. Although Crystal Palace is likely to reject any offer for Walton, it is understood that signing the player will cost more than 100 million pounds.
Manchester United's interest in Walton may be a long-term plan, and the club remains committed to meeting Amorin's demands for the midfield. They are also interested in Portuguese midfielder Jurmander, with sporadic connections with Mibor midfielder Hegeni, but obviously no one can fit in the United midfield as perfectly as Baleba, so the club may need to convince Amorin to wait for another season, and the basic work done this season may allow them to sign both Walton and Baleba next summer, which will completely change them.
