Manchester United and Tottenham are in a race to secure Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford this summer, because both parties strengthen their team after a gloomy Premier League campaign 2024/25
Bryan Mbeumo seems to be on the move this summer from Brentford, but the burning question is that he arrives in Old Trafford or the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The 25-year-old winger scored 20 goals and took eight assists for the bees this season, and as a result a number of their Premier League rivals are connected to him.
Manchester United strives for Mbeumo after the first summer transfer window has been opened, in which Ruben wants to strengthen his firepower for 2025/26 after a gloomy 15th place. The Red Devils saw a first bid with a value of a maximum of £ 55 million rejected by Brentford, who appreciate Mbeumo at £ 60 million.
However, it is said that United is currently preparing a different offer for the Cameroon International, which has 22 caps for the country. Thomas Frank moved to North Londs, put the cat under the pigeons.
The Danish brain, who enjoyed Brentford for seven years, was appointed earlier this month as the new manager of Spurs in the aftermath of the looting of Ange Postecoglou, and he also hopes to improve his attacking options while the LilyWhites ends even lower than United in the 17th.
Frank is enthusiastic about a reunion and Spurs made their first offer last week, more than what was offered by the Powers-Sat-Be at Old Trafford .. While the Saga passes, Spiegelvoetbal breaks down the latest developments …
United remains confident
It is claimed that United remains trust in their pursuit of Mbeumo despite interest from Spurs. According to the men, the attacker told confiders that Old Trafford is his favorite destination, although other sources have claimed that he did not split the possibility of reuniting with Frank at Spurs.
Sources say that traces are “going hard” for the Talisman and may be ready to offer a higher salary, but United are still the front runners in the race to secure his signature. After he had already explained £ 62.5 million on Matheus Cunha, it is clear that Amorim has the support of the board this summer while he wants to revise his hereditary team of Erik ten Hag.
And it is thought that Mbeumo would be perfect for Amorim's patented 3-4-2-1 system as United hopes to find an answer for their right flank, since it has been a problem position in Old Trafford for more than a decade.
Mbeumo pronounces
Elsewhere, Mbeumo noted that he “accepts” the speculation around his future. Traces are said to have first conversations with Brentford about a deal for the attacker, who finds itself more intrigued by the team now that they are playing under Frank as an extra incentive.
And Mbeumo also pronounced while the Transfersaga continues to roll. Speaking with Sky Sports, he said: “The (the transfer speculation) is a bit new to me that I would say. I think it can be the life of a football player and you have to accept it.”
He added: “It has been my best season in the Premier League so far. And even collective I think we played very good games. I think we had bad luck to chase the Europe place, but I think it has been a fantastic season.”
Despite sources that claim that Mbeumo is more preferred to United this summer, the star has held his cards incredibly close to his chest since Spurs came in the race for his signature.
Spurs Eye A Plan B
Spurs have a backup in mind if they are unable to sign Mbeumo this summer, with conversations held with the representatives of Antoine Semenyo van Bournemouth. The winger enjoyed a breakthrough season with the cherries in 2024/25, scored 11 goals and gave six assists in the Premier League.
Spurs such as his versatility, able to play wide or as a no. 9. But Bournemouth is not planning to say goodbye to the Ghanaian, 25, cheap – refusing to go for slightly less than £ 60 million, but reflects his interest as an important player.
