Manchester United Nears £65M Bryan Mbeumo Transfer Before US Tour

News summary

Manchester United is close to finalizing a £65 million deal to sign Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, who is eager to join the club and frustrated by the slow negotiations. The main obstacle remains the payment structure, as Brentford wants most, if not all, of the fee paid upfront, while United seeks a compromise on installments and add-ons. Despite two rejected bids, talks continue with optimism that the transfer can be completed before United's pre-season tour in the United States, starting July 26. Tottenham Hotspur's interest in Brentford’s other forward, Yoane Wissa, complicates the situation since Brentford intends to sell only one key forward this window, which could impact United's chances if Spurs meet Brentford’s valuation. Mbeumo is expected to play a key role in Ruben Amorim’s 3-4-2-1 system alongside new signing Matheus Cunha, providing pace and finishing ability that United lacked last season. Personal terms with Mbeumo have been agreed, and the club is eager to conclude the deal ahead of upcoming friendlies, including a match against West Ham in New Jersey.
