The eight-time Ballon d'Or winner has pretty much ruled out a last dance at the Spotify Camp Nou, at this point, and has informed all the presidential candidates of the same. The current Inter Miami megastar, though, would be open to a return in a different role sometime in the future, but a comeback in a playing capacity is off the table.
Manchester United are interested in signing the talented young midfielder, and they are the strongest contenders to secure his signature. They need more physicality and defensive cover in the middle of the park, and Baleba would be an excellent addition.
Tottenham Hotspur is seemingly taking on the role of being a club where unwanted Bayern Munich players are given a second chance. João Palhinha and Mathys Tel (in completely different circumstances) ply their trade there, but Spurs want more. In fact, the Lilywhites rang up Serge Gnabry to see if he was up for grabs. Gnabry's camp turned them down:
The forward is already in talks with Bayern Munich over signing a contract extension. He added: There's a two-year offer on the table, and it seems that he's prepared to stay put at the Allianz Arena. Serge Gnabry has basically turned around and said, No, I'm talking with Bayern Munich at the moment. Thanks for the interest, but if it works with Bayern, I'm going to stay.'
Newcastle United signed Vakhtang Salia from Dinamo Tbilisi during the summer transfer window. The 18-year-old attacker is highly rated at the club, but he has yet to feature for the Premier League club because of injury problems. He will be hoping to return to action quickly and establish himself as a first-team player for the club. He is a long-term investment for Newcastle, and they will hope to nurture him into an important player.
