BREAKING: Manchester United Hijack Chelsea’s Transfer as Star Signs Six-Year Deal – Medical Scheduled for Today! Congrats, Red Devils Fans!
Manchester United have successfully swooped in to steal a key transfer target from under Chelsea’s nose. The player has signed a six-year contract and is set to arrive today for his medical ahead of an official unveiling. United fans have every reason to celebrate.
Meanwhile, in other transfer developments, the Red Devils continue to pursue Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford.
After a spectacular 2024/25 season in which the Cameroonian forward scored 20 Premier League goals—trailing only Salah, Haaland, and Isak—he’s become one of the hottest names on the market.
Since arriving from Troyes in 2019, Mbeumo has grown into a key figure at Brentford, but his recent form has caught the attention of Europe’s elite. United submitted a £55 million bid, which was turned down as Brentford hold out for a higher fee.
Though Mbeumo is eager to join Rúben Amorim’s squad at Old Trafford, the deal is under threat as Tottenham Hotspur, now managed by former Brentford boss Thomas Frank, are attempting to hijack it.
Despite Spurs’ interest, United are still considered frontrunners. However, according to reports from ESPN, club CEO Omar Berrada has set a strict limit on what they’ll pay. If Brentford refuse to lower their demands, United won’t hesitate to pull out.
In that case, the club has identified Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth) and Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace) as alternative targets to strengthen the attack.
With Berrada keen to avoid the costly mistakes of past transfer windows, United’s new approach is clear: no overpaying, no regrets—just smart, high-impact signings.
