According to the report, Manchester United are awaiting Brentford FC’s response in their quest to secure a deal for Cameroonian international Mbeumo, their top summer transfer target. A few days ago, Brentford FC rejected Manchester United’s second offer for Mbeumo. Brentford had previously rejected the Red Devils’ first offer of £55 million. A second offer of £62.5 million was also rejected.

Talks between the two clubs will continue in the coming days to sign the 25-year-old. Mbeumo’s contract with Brentford FC runs until the end of next season, with the option to extend for a further season.
