United Manchester continues negotiations over Bryan Mbeumo's transfer fee; medical examination for Brentford's standout player arranged.
Red Devils and Bees in Transfer Tussle over Mbeumo
Got your eyes peeled on the Premier League's transfer market? Hear this! Man United's keen on snagging Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford, but talks are still afloat regarding the final transfer fee and deal structure.
Word on the street is, the winger's medical with United's already set for next week, despite the ongoing negotiations. Initially, United tossed a £55million bid at Brentford, with £45m upfront and £10m in add-ons. But lately, they're thought to be sealing a deal worth more than the £62.5m United paid Wolves for Matheus Cunha.
Spurs have been buzzing around Mbeumo too, following Thomas Frank's shift to the Tottenham hotseat. However, the forward's always been vocal about his preference for Old Trafford this summer over a reunion with Frank in north London.
Tottenham, instead, are rumored to focus on a swoop for Eberechi Eze, with both Arsenal and Spurs gunning for the Crystal Palace star.
United's already got a £250,000-a-week contract in the bag for Mbeumo, five times his current salary at Brentford. If the deal goes through, Brentford will be rubbing their hands in delight - it'll be a club record sale for them, with their new manager, Keith Andrews, waiting in the wings.
The Bees won't only see Mbeumo take flight, either. Christian Norgaard's set to join Arsenal soon. For United, Mbeumo's arrival'll see Ruben Amorim power on with his ambitious spending, following the historic club's worst-ever Premier League campaign.
United's already got Cunha in the bag for £62.5m, with more signings in the pipeline, particularly a new center-forward. Sporting Lisbon's Viktor Gyokeres is linked heavily with a move to Old Trafford, but discussions are uncertain amidst Arsenal's interest. RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko's also on United's radar, but talks with both Gyokeres and Sesko are still in the works.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Mbeumo saga! The Red Devils are flexing their muscles in the transfer market, and Old Trafford could potentially witness a brand-new face soon!
Brentford is standing firm with their valuation of Mbeumo at more than £65 million, despite Manchester United's current bid of £62.5 million. The Red Devils, nevertheless, remain adamant about not being held to ransom on the fee and are optimistic that Mbeumo desires a move to Old Trafford.
