Manchester United has made an improved offer of more than £ 60 million for Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford.
United, as expected, went back with another offer for Mbeumo after they have rejected their first bid up to £ 55 million.
Brentford Value Mbeumo, who effectively has two years about his deal, in more than £ 60 million and are willing to listen to offers.
Sky Sports News previously revealed in June that Spurs had held first conversations with Brentford for the 25-year-old.
Mbeumo is supposed to be intrigued by Spurs, who have just appointed his former boss Thomas Frank, but one source has told Sky Sports News that he tends to United.
Mbeumo is a player who has admired United for a while and is seen as a good fit for the system of Ruben Amorim.
There is a feeling at Brentford that Mbeumo has earned the opportunity to move to a larger club this summer if they are satisfactory.
United has already agreed a deal to sign Matheus Cunha van Wolves for £ 62.5 million.
