According to the British press, Brentford knew that MU was “tired” and the desire to recruit Bryan Mbeumo, so he enlisted the price of the Cameroon striker.
MU considered Bryan Mbeumo as a priority goal after recruiting Matheus CuHa from Wolves. In order to quickly close the Cameroon striker, the Red Devils sent two consecutive proposals to Brentford, respectively 55 and £ 60 million, but were rejected.
Before the toughness of Brentford, MU has not made the third proposal for Mbeumo. Brentford initially valued MBeumo £ 65 million, but it has increased to £ 70 million because in addition to MU, Tottenham and Newcastle also want to own a 25 -year -old striker.
According to the prestigious source of The Guardian, billionaire Jim Ratcliffe values MBeumo up to £ 65 million because the Cameroon striker has only shone only one season and has never played at the big club, so it is still a risk contract. That is why the Old Trafford team has not spent the fee required by the partner.
MBEumo's contract is only 1 year with an option of 12 months extension. Therefore, “bees” confident when negotiating with MU they are willing to keep Mbeumo staying next season if the Red Devils do not meet the transfer fee requirements.
On the player's side, Mbeumo just wanted to go to MU, despite Amorim's team not to attend the European Cup. Last season, Mbeumo scored 20 goals and 7 assists in the Premier League. It was the best achievement since he joined the Gtech yard in 2019 for only £ 5 million.
