Bryan Mbeumo chooses Manchester United! Brentford star tells Bees and Spurs that he plans to join Ruben Amorim's side this summer after £60m bid

<p>After months of speculation, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6447519/2025/06/27/bryan-mbeumo-manchester-united-transfer-spurs-brentford/" target="_blank">David Ornstein reports</a> for <em>The Atheltic</em> that the Cameroonian forward has selected Manchester United as his next club. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-close-in-on-bryan-mbeumo-agree-fee-brentford-iron-out-final-transfer-details/bltd658440f3774223b#cs65553579f7117c21" target="_blank">While it had been suggested a fee of £65m had been agreed by the two clubs</a>, Ornstein believes an official agreement has yet to be reached. United had a bid worth up to £62.5m rejected by the Bees. Brentford want to exceed that figure, the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-62m-matheus-cunha-release-clause-failing-workaround-wolves-talisman-set-medical/blt4a700dc0ae1f939f" target="_blank">fee the Red Devils agreed with Wolves for the services of Matheus Cunha</a>, making the reported £65m fee likely.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>It had appeared the 26-year-old may have been heading for North London rather than Manchester, after his ex-manager Thomas Frank was named Spurs manager. Despite the club showing interest, Ornstein reports they deny lodging an official offer.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Were United to complete a deal, it would take their total spend this transfer window to £125m. Considering the perilous statements made by Sir Jim Ratcliffe regarding the club's finances, it's somewhat surprising United are in position to make this move without selling first team players. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/crazy-antony-signing-complex-operation-betis-promise-creative-bid-convince-man-utd-star-lower-price/bltf5e7320399cb1744" target="_blank">Antony</a>, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jadon-sancho-fenerbahce-off-jose-mourinho-man-utd-talks-ruben-amorim/blt09bd812c53ca1256" target="_blank">Jadon Sancho,</a> <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-slash-70m-alejandro-garnacho-price-tag-winger-transfer-preference-emerges-after-chelsea-links/blt07c709ddea4ab656" target="_blank">Alejandro Garnacho</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-marcus-rashford-nightmare-red-devils-lower-asking-price-outcast/blt199ae6285e174b8a" target="_blank">Marcus Rashford</a> are all expected to depart before the start of the new season.</p>
