Manchester United push hard for Bryan Mbeumo with big-money second bid

Manchester United have stepped up their pursuit of Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo by submitting a significantly improved second offer, signaling how determined the Red Devils are to land the Cameroonian winger.

While the exact figure of the latest bid hasn’t been revealed, sources close to the deal confirm that it surpasses the €70 million (£60 million) mark, edging closer to Brentford’s valuation. Negotiations have stretched over several weeks, and Manchester United remain confident of getting the deal over the line.

Mbeumo, 24, has shown strong interest in joining Erik ten Hag’s squad, with United viewing him as a key addition to their attacking setup ahead of the new season. Despite Brentford’s firm stance, United are pressing forward, believing the player’s desire could help sway the London club.

The club continues to stand by its strict transfer strategy, setting clear internal price tags for each target to avoid inflating fees. However, in Mbeumo’s case, United appear willing to stretch the limits.

Talks are ongoing as all parties edge toward an agreement.
