Manchester United Agrees Record Deal for Brentford Star

Manchester United have made a breakthrough to reach an agreement with Brentford to sign Bryan Mbeumo at a fee of around 65m, with add-ons taking the deal value to over 70m. Everyone was impressed with the 25-year-old last year when he managed to score 20 Premier League goals in Brentford, so he was an object of interest by the new Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim.

It is stated that this signing will consist of Mbeumo being the second significant addition to the Manchester United squad in the summer, following the signing of Matheus Cunha to the team, who was transferred to Manchester United by Wolverhampton Wanderers. This transfer is the keen idea of Manchester United management, who have been negotiating with Brentford for weeks to make the transfer soon.

Medical Scheduled and US Tour Inclusion Expected

Manchester United would like to get the medical examination of Bryan Mbeumo this weekend so as to wrap up his transfer as soon as possible. Should it all work out fine, the Brentford forward would be in camp with Manchester United when they take off on a three-match tour of the United States beginning at Chicago on Tuesday.

The fast conclusion of this business is vital to Manchester United because they desire Mbeumo to join the company as soon as possible. Manager Ruben Amorim is currently looking forward to the new season and including the mark of a consistent goalscorer in his attacking assets.

Brentford’s Reluctance and Transfer Complications

In comparison, Brentford had earlier on appraised Bryan Mbeumo at more than the amount that Manchester United had bought Matheus Cunha, owing to their younger age and goal-scoring ability. London club has been hesitant to part with both Mbeumo and his striking partner Yoane Wissa in the same transfer window, and this made the transfer of the former player by Manchester United quite cumbersome.
