Man Utd fan sets up GoFundMe as they aim to help club launch huge summer bid

Per the Daily Mail, a United fan has cheekily launched a GoFundMe page, asking for donations to help fund the club's reported move for Baleba at Brighton. The club are currently exploring the conditions of a deal to sign the midfielder, but the reporting states that any deal is unlikely due to the club's unwillingness to sell and his high asking price.

The fan who has launched the page, Ian M, is attempting to raise £120 million ($161m), which is quite the stretch. The most successful charity appeal on the website raised almost £34m ($45m), and was titled 'America's food fund'. United have already signed Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha this summer, along with Diego Leon. 

The appeal reads: "We need this to happen we need this to happen we need this to happen we need this to happen."

So far, at the time of writing, Ian has raised £5.

United will continue to explore a deal for Baleba but it is unclear if they will be able to land the impressive midfielder.
