BREAKING: Manchester United finalize two major transfers, including the club’s biggest signing yet, with the fee agreed last night and the unveiling scheduled for today — Amorim is really making moves
Bryan Mbeumo remains determined to join Manchester United despite Tottenham Hotspur’s recent interest.
According to Ben Jacobs, Manchester United’s pursuit of Mbeumo is still strong, even with Tottenham entering the race.
Tottenham are eager to attract the Cameroonian by potentially appointing Brentford’s manager Thomas Frank, while Mbeumo himself favors a move to Manchester United.
Man United plan to strengthen their attack before the new season, having already signed Matheus Cunha as the first of several acquisitions.
The club is targeting a new winger and striker, planning some departures and big signings.
Bryan Mbeumo is a key target; Manchester United recently had a bid turned down by Brentford.
The Cameroonian prefers Manchester United over other interested clubs like Arsenal and Newcastle United.
There is optimism that the deal will go through, but Manchester United must finalize a transfer fee with Brentford. Mbeumo had a standout season with 29 combined goals and assists.
Personal terms are not expected to be a major issue, though Tottenham’s interest could complicate matters.
Tottenham’s Europa League win over Manchester United secured their Champions League spot, which might appeal to top players like Mbeumo.
Tottenham are close to naming Thomas Frank as manager after sacking Ange Postecoglou, which could influence Mbeumo’s decision, but he remains committed to joining Manchester United.
Ultimately, the focus is on negotiating with Brentford to complete the transfer and bring Mbeumo to Old Trafford.
