Brighton and Hove Albion have reached an agreement with LOSC Lille over the proposed transfer of Carlos Baleba, according to multiple sources. The young midfielder is considered a good candidate to replace Moises Caicedo in Roberto De Zerbi s ranks.

Players like Julio Enciso (19), Evan Ferguson (18) and Joao Pedro (21) could fetch similar profits in the near future as well. At the age of 19, Baleba could also be on that list soon.
Baleba joined Lille s B side from Cameroonian …

The future of Ansu Fati at Barcelona appears to be increasingly uncertain.
Fati was a revelation when he first broke into the Barca first team, but has suffered several injury issues that have halted his momentum.
Even when fit, Fati has struggled to get into Xavi s side this season, featuring in 30 games but only nine times from the start, with six goals and three assists to show for it.
