Bryan Mbeumo: Manchester United submit improved 70m bid after Brentford raise asking price
Briefly

United's recent bid for Mbeumo is 65m up front plus 5m in add-ons, matching Brentford's request. Previous offers were turned down as negotiations began in June. Mbeumo expressed frustration over the protracted discussions but is eager to move to Old Trafford. Brentford raised their asking price due to comparable transfer fees for other players this window. Once the offer is accepted, negotiations are anticipated to conclude swiftly, impacting Newcastle's pursuit of Yoane Wissa who they value between 30-35m.
United's latest offer for Mbeumo totals 65m up front plus 5m in add-ons, which aligns with Brentford's valuation and is expected to be accepted.
Negotiations for Mbeumo began in June, and after two rejected bids, United's current offer aims to finalize a deal with the player keen on Old Trafford.
Brentford initially sought more than 62.5m for Mbeumo, but raised their asking price due to Newcastle's 55m for Elanga and Arsenal's 52m for Madueke.
Mbeumo's move to United is anticipated to affect Newcastle's interest in Yoane Wissa, as Brentford aims to keep their premier forwards this summer.
