Manchester United has submitted a third transfer bid for Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo worth £ 65 million plus £ 5 million in add-ons.
Brentford is considering the offer and has to make a decision.
United saw their second bid for the Cameroon Vooruit, worth £ 62.5 million, rejected by Brentford in June. Their opening offer was £ 55 million.
Sky Sports News reported earlier this summer that Mbeumo only wants to become a member of United, despite interest from his former boss Thomas Frank in Tottenham.
Mbeumo is a player who has admired United for a while and is seen as a good fit for Ruben Amorim's system.
There is a feeling at Brentford that Mbeumo has earned the opportunity to move to a larger club this summer if they are satisfactory.
Would Mbeumo -Exit influence the future of Wissa?
If United would complete a deal for Mbeumo, this could have consequences in the Newcastle search for a striker.
The Magpies wanted to replenish Eintracht Frankfurt Hugo Ekitike, but the Frenchman now wants to become a member of Liverpool, who is expected to make an offer for the 23-year-old.
Newcastle then showed interest in Brentford Striker Yoane Wissa, knowing that they could miss Ekitike.
Sky Sports News understands that it is very unlikely that Brentford will sell both Mbeumo and Wissa this summer.
It is seen by the club as a too important loss of attacking talent and goals after they have lost all their head coach Thomas Frank and Captain Christian Norgaard this summer.
