## Resource

Carlos Baleba is finally on the verge of his Manchester United debut after a grueling recovery from an ankle injury that sidelined him since signing for $94 million from Brighton. Though he missed Brighton’s preseason and was left out of Cameroon’s qualifiers, Baleba has been diligently rehabbing and is now rejoining the full squad — ready to train intensely during the international break. With just three weeks before facing Tottenham on October 10th, Baleba’s timing couldn’t be better as United braces for a packed October schedule. Seen as the perfect defensive midfielder to balance United’s midfield, Baleba is poised to slot into key matches and could become a vital starter in high-stakes fixtures.
