BREAKING: In a dramatic twist that’s rocked the Premier League, Manchester United have struck a full agreement with Brentford to sign star winger Bryan Mbeumo, following weeks of intense negotiations. The highly-rated Cameroon international is now on the verge of becoming a Red Devil, with all club-to-club formalities now complete. ✅📃🖊️
Sources close to the situation confirm that United and Brentford have agreed on a deal worth around £45 million, including performance-based bonuses — a major investment as new manager Rúben Amorim reshapes the attack.
The long-running deal accelerated in the past 48 hours after breakthrough discussions in London. Mbeumo has now been given the green light to travel to Manchester, where he’ll undergo a medical at Carrington and finalize personal terms — which have already been verbally agreed.
At 25, Mbeumo fits perfectly into Amorim’s tactical system at Old Trafford. Known for his explosive pace, relentless work rate, and versatility as both a winger and second striker, he brings exactly the kind of energy and adaptability United need up front.
🔴 INSIDE THE DEAL:
After months of scouting and detailed analysis, Amorim identified Mbeumo as a priority signing — especially with uncertainty still looming over Antony and Jadon Sancho. While Brentford were initially hesitant to part with one of their key attackers, United’s improved offer, complete with favorable terms, eventually sealed the deal.
Reports suggest Brentford are already in the market for replacements as they prepare for life without Mbeumo, who has become one of the Premier League’s most effective wide men since Brentford’s rise to the top flight in 2021.
👀 WHAT HAPPENS NEXT:
Mbeumo is expected to complete his medical in Manchester within 24 hours.
United plan to officially unveil him later this week.
He will sign a five-year deal, with the option of an additional year.
* The winger is set to join the squad for pre-season training and could feature on their summer tour.
🎙️ “Bryan Mbeumo brings everything we’re looking for — pace, intelligence, aggression, and technical quality,” said a source close to Amorim. “He’s more than a signing for today — he’s a pillar for the future of our attack.”
Fans are already celebrating online, with hashtags like #WelcomeMbeumo and #MbeumoIsRed trending shortly after the news broke. If all goes to plan, Bryan Mbeumo will soon be donning United red and lighting up Old Trafford.
