Man Utd Pursues Mbeumo Despite Rejected Offer

Brentford have rejected Manchester United’s latest bid worth up to £62.5 million (€73.2 million) for Bryan Mbeumo, the PA news agency understands.

United are pushing to bring in the 25-year-old forward, having completed the capture of Matheus Cunha earlier this month.

The Brazil international arrived from Wolves in a £62.5m deal, which is the amount United’s latest offer for Mbeumo came to when add-ons were included.

But Brentford are understood to have rebuffed that approach, just like a previous offer worth up to £55m, and talks continue over a move that the player is understood to have expressed his desire to make.

Spurs, now managed by Mbeumo’s ex-Bees boss Thomas Frank, are also interested in the Cameroon international.

The forward’s contract at Brentford expires next summer, although there is an option to extend by a further year.
