Newcastle will return in the summer for £ 60 million in advance Bryan Mbeumo after an approach by Brentford.
The Champions League-Chasing Magpies are big fans of the 25-year-old who enjoys a sensational season in West London. Earlier this month, a step was taken, but was quickly fired by the bees that do not intend to give their milling corit in advance.
Mbeumo enjoys his best Premier League campaign and it would take a monster offer for his club to sell it before the transfer star closes next week. Only Erling Haaland, Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak have scored more goals from the top flight this season.
Mbeumo has so far scored 14 times and confused three assists in 23 games. His count included strikes against Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle itself in the 4-2 home win of the bees in December.
Brentford boss Thomas Frank has also praised Mbeumo as the best penalty task in the competition after his recaptured Spot-Kick set up the 2-1 victory of the club over Crystal Palace last weekend. The Cameroon International remains one of only five Premier League players who have never missed and score of all nine of his attempts.
Mbeumo has only had a year about his current contract after this season. But crucial is that Brentford has the option to extend it by another 12 months. The only hope of Newcastle at the landing of Mbeumo would be this month by acting by players, because their expenses are limited by PSR.
Liverpool and Arsenal are also massive admirers with the future of Salah at Anfield Uncertain and Bukayo Saka injured for the Gunners. After only four wins in 13 games between September and December, Newcastle has since revived with 10 wins in the last 11 games in all games.
They are also on track to reach the Carabao Cup final that took a crucial advantage against Arsenal at the Emirates earlier this month. But Newcastle -Baas Eddie Howe not only wants to rely on the club's stitcher, Alexander Isak, who enjoys an incredible season with 19 goals in all competitions – including 11 in his last eight games alone.
Signing Mbeumo would give Newcastle goals directly opposite their front line, because Anthony Gordon who plays left has five goals in his last eight games.
