More than 1 month deadlock in the Bryan Mbeumo deal, Man United continued to receive more cold water when Brentford Club decided to increase prices.
Bryan Mbeumo expressed his desire to join MU from the beginning of the summer. Jim Ratcliffe and Sports Director Jason Wilcox believed that the transfer package worth £ 65 million was enough to convince Brentford to release. At that time, the Brentford side even showed that the medical examination was being scheduled in a short time.
However, the fact that Brentford's change of stance encountered fierce opposition from the MU leaders who did not want to be forced to price and ready to wait further. Although the contract of MBEumo will expire in the summer of the following year, Brentford will still take the initiative thanks to the terms of self -extension for an additional 1 year.
Brentford raised the price of Bryan Mbeumo to £ 70 million |
Initially, the Red Devils gave £ 55 million for the Cameroon player, but the Brentford side refers to their stars that are equally priced at Matheus Cuha – who was recruited by Man United for £ 62.5 million. However, 1 month has passed, when the Old Trafford team has met this number, even increasing the total package to £ 65 million, the “bee” increased to £ 70 million when witnessing many Premier League deals were completed.
Only more than 4 weeks, MU will welcome Arsenal in the Premier League opening match. Earlier, they will play friendly with Leeds on Saturday at the Strawberry Arena (Stockholm), before flying to the US to fight, in turn encounter West Ham, Bournemouth and Everton. The possibility of the Red Devils completed the Bryan Mbeumo deal before this weekend is unlikely, unless they meet the price of £ 70 million and makes the effort to eliminate the “Man United tax” collapse.
