Man United transfer news: Baleba latest, Lewis-Skelly truth

Manchester United's attention has turned to the summer transfer window after a disastrous start to the Premier League season. The Reds lost 2-0 at Hull City on Saturday, marking the first time they have lost to a newly promoted side in their opening fixture. Pressure is already building ahead of what is being described as a must-win home game against Ipswich Town next Sunday.

Baleba deal close

Carlos Baleba's imminent arrival is expected to provide some improvement. The Cameroon international is set to complete a £70million move to Old Trafford.

Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos were the two big-name additions this summer, but both struggled on their debuts at Hull.

Left-back concerns

Left-back remains an area of concern, with Luke Shaw having less than a year left on his current contract. Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly and Newcastle's Lewis Hall have been linked with moves, although neither deal looks realistic before the transfer window closes on September 1.

Barcelona's Alejandro Balde is also being linked with a move to United, with reports suggesting a £43m move could be on the cards. However, no official confirmation has been made.
