Man Utd to make final take it or leave it Bryan Mbeumo transfer offer to Brentford to make second summer signing

Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo is keen on a move to Old Trafford, but his club knocked back Manchester United’s first transfer bid for the Cameroon international

Manchester United are ready to submit an improved bid of £60million for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo – but it is likely to be their final offer.

United had an initial bid of £55m – £45m plus £10m in add-ons – rejected by Brentford, but are set to test their resolve to keep Mbeumo with a fresh offer of £55m, plus £5m in bonuses.

Brentford’s valuation of Mbeumo starts at £60m, but United are hoping their improved offer of that figure will be accepted by the west London club and allow them to complete the signing of the 25-year-old.

Mbeumo has already indicated his desire to join United, with personal terms of around £200,000-a-week said to have already been agreed over a five-year contract with an option for an extra year

The only stumbling block is the fee for Cameroon international Mbeumo, who would be United’s second signing of the summer, following the £62.5m arrival of Matheus Cunha from Wolves.

United boss Ruben Amorim is desperate to improve his attacking options, after his side managed just 44 goals in the Premier League last season – the second lowest of a non-relegated side
