Tottenham, Man United Vie for Brentford’s Mbeumo

Tottenham Hotspur have entered discussions with Brentford to sign Bryan Mbeumo, increasing competition with Manchester United, who were previously considered frontrunners. Spurs' recent appointment of Thomas Frank, Mbeumo's ex-manager, has reportedly swayed the player to consider a move to North London, though his initial preference was United. Brentford rejected United's initial offer, maintaining a valuation between £60m and £70m, while Spurs have yet to make a formal bid. Mbeumo, who netted 20 Premier League goals last season, is now weighing United's higher wage offer against Tottenham's Champions League football and the chance to reunite with Frank. Meanwhile, other Champions League clubs have also expressed interest, adding urgency to United's pursuit. The final decision is expected to depend on financial terms, sporting ambitions, and personal connections.
