Manchester United are looking to strengthen their squad after a bitter 15th-place finish in the 2024\/25 Premier League campaign. The Red Devils are now pushing for the signing of Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo and are continuing to negotiate a price.<\/p>\n
Sky Sports’ reporter Dharmesh Sheth has reported<\/a> that the Red Devils have seen their opening offer to sign the Cameroonian forward rejected by the Bees. It’s added that the Red Devils had offered a fee of a guaranteed \u00a345 million along with \u00a310 million in bonuses, for a total fee of \u00a355 million.<\/p>\n Read More:\u00a0<\/strong>Manchester United Set To Keep Key Player As He Rejects Major Offer<\/a><\/p>\n The reporter claims that Brentford have made it clear that they value the 25-year-old at over \u00a360 million and that “negotiations are continuing” between the two teams. It’s also being reported that the Bees are pointing at the \u00a362.5 million that the Red Devils paid to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves<\/a> recently as a starting point for valuations. Despite that, Manchester United remain optimistic that an agreement will be struck and that a second bid is also expected to be made. It’s already been reported<\/a> that Mbeumo has personally agreed<\/a> on a deal to join Ruben Amorim’s side after his impressive heroics in the 2024\/25 season.<\/p>\n The Red Devils are pushing for the signing of Mbeumo after seeing him make some impressive contributions in the previous campaign. The Cameroonian forward was able to score 20 goals in the 2024\/25 Premier League campaign, as well as bagging eight assists. In fact, only three players in Mohamed Salah, Alexander Isak and Erling Haaland outscored the 25-year-old in the previous term. He scored more goals than United forwards Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee managed together (7) in the league last season.<\/p>\nWhat Can Mbeumo Bring to Old Trafford?<\/h3>\n
