Carlos Baleba gets No. 20 shirt at Manchester United

Manchester United have confirmed the shirt number that newly signed midfielder Carlos Baleba will wear at the club.

The Red Devils completed the signing of the Cameroon international from Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday.

Baleba has committed his future to Manchester United until June 2031, with the club holding an option to extend his contract for an additional year.

In a post on their website, Man United confirmed that Baleba will wear the No. 20 shirt at Old Trafford.

Shortly after the official announcement, the 22-year-old said he could not wait to work with Manchester United manager, Michael Carrick.

“I cannot wait to work with Michael Carrick. His experience and knowledge of the game make him the perfect coach to help me reach the highest level,” Baleba said.

Baleba will hope to feature for Man United when they host Ipswich Town in the Premier League this weekend.
