Man United next transfer after Bryan Mbeumo deal amid huge ‘bid’ for £85m superstar

Manchester United transfer news as a blockbuster move for Hugo Ekitike emerges amid Liverpool and Newcastle battle

Manchester United have spent the majority of the summer transfer window targeting a move for Bryan Mbeumo and yet he remains at Brentford.

United moved quickly to sign new attackers for Ruben Amorim following the club’s worst season in 51 years. Matheus Cunha was brought in for £62.5million from Wolves at the start of June and Mbeumo was then made the Reds’ number one target.

Now, with pre-season underway and the 2025/26 season approaching, United have had no luck with their pursuit of Mbeumo. Two bids have been turned down, the latest in excess of £60m, with Brentford understood to now be demanding closer to £70m.
