Bryan Mbeumo is the winger Manchester United really need. Almost impossible to stop when he rushes forward, with a determination, confidence and finishing that last season gave Brentford 20 goals and 8 assists in the Premier League. Brentford are not making it easy for United to complete the signing, but now it is reported that Ruben Amorim will very soon have the 25-year-old on the training ground.
United opened with a bid of £45 million, which was quickly rejected by Brentford. The London club also turned down a new bid of up to £62.5 million.
