Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo is set to join Manchester United after successfully completing his medical examination. The transfer is expected to be finalized soon, with a fee reported to be around £71 million, including guaranteed payments and potential add-ons. Mbeumo's move comes after weeks of negotiations and rejected offers, with United finally reaching an agreement that includes a guaranteed £65 million to be paid in four installments, alongside £6 million in achievable add-ons.

The 24-year-old has made a significant impact at Brentford, scoring 20 goals in the Premier League last season and providing seven assists, showcasing his ability to contribute both in terms of scoring and playmaking. His performance was crucial in helping Brentford secure a top-half finish in the league, making him a highly sought-after talent.

Mbeumo, who had two years remaining on his contract with Brentford, was reportedly keen on a move to Old Trafford despite interest from other clubs, including Tottenham. His signing is seen as a strategic addition to bolster United's attacking options under manager Ruben Amorim, who is looking to enhance the squad ahead of the new season.

With the expectation that Mbeumo will be part of the squad for United’s pre-season tour in the United States, fans are eager to see how he will fit into the team as they aim to reclaim their status as title contenders. The transfer not only marks a significant step in Mbeumo's career but also brings Brentford a substantial profit, given he was signed for just £4 million from Troyes in 2019.
