Done deal – Insider confirms Man Utd & Brentford have Mbeumo agreement; Figures revealed | OneFootball

Manchester United have reportedly reached the finish line after striking an agreement with Brentford for the transfer of Bryan Mbeumo.

The Red Devils have been tirelessly working on signing the 25-year-old who delighted the Premier League with his sensational performances this season. The Cameroonian has electric on the right wing, and absolutely vicious in front of goals, as evidenced by his 20 goals.

Therefore, Brentford were only willing to relinquish the Cameroonian’s services in return for a substantial transfer fee. Man Utd initially put £45m plus £10m on the table, but the Bees deemed it insufficient.

Nevertheless, the Old Trafford outfit kept pushing in search of a solution, and they have seemingly found a breakthrough.

Man Utd strike agreement for Bryan Mbeumo

In his latest update for CentreDevils, Man Utd insider, Sully, revealed that the clubs have now reached a full accord for Mbeumo’s transfer.

As the journalist explains, Brentford have accepted United’s £60 million offer, which will also include add-ons. Therefore, the figures are somewhat similar to those paid for Matheus Cunha earlier this month.

But while the Brazilian’s transfer was more straightforward thanks to a £62.5 million, MUFC had to hustle to find an agreement with Brentford.

Nevertheless, the Reds were always the front runners in the race, as Mbeumo identified Carrington as his favourite destination from the get-go, despite the interest of three Champions League clubs in Arsenal, Newcastle, and Tottenham Hotspur.

What’s next for United?

United had long agreed personal terms with the player, while waiting to receive the green light from the Bees. The Guardian had revealed that the winger is expected to earn a weekly salary of £150,000, which is also similar to Cunha’s.

Despite sealing their attacking addition of the summer, Man Utd are still expected to land a centre-forward before the start of the new season, but his identity remains shrouded in mystery.
