Given the recent developments, I don't think Manchester United will land Balde by the January deadline. Barcelona has been pretty firm about keeping their young talent, and with his performances, they might even prioritize extending his contract instead. The odds seem skewed because of recent hype; I would say the chances are closer to around 20 percent. What do others think the likelihood actually is?

The odds for Manchester United signing Alejandro Balde seem way off to me. Balde is a young talent with huge potential at Barcelona; why would they let him go? If anything, I'd expect United to face stiff competition, especially from clubs that can pay more. Maybe the market hasn't factored in Barcelona's financial struggles properly. But, if United does manage to pull it off, it could really reshape their defense. I'm leaning toward the no side for now, unless something drastic happens.

Balde's been impressive, but this feels like a stretch. Man Utd’s options are pretty stacked, and Barca is not letting him go easily. Current odds feel inflated.

I don’t really get why the odds are so high on this. Balde is dope, but he just signed a new deal with Barcelona last year; they’re not gonna let him go that easily. Also, Man U has bigger problems to worry about rn, like sorting out their manager situation. Sure they might want a left-back, but I’d bet they look elsewhere first. Like, I’d put the chances closer to 20% than whatever this market is saying. Just feels off to me.
