BREAKING: Manchester United Hijack Chelsea Deal as Star Signs 6-Year Contract – Medical Scheduled for Today! Congratulations, Red Devils Fans!
Manchester United have reportedly pulled off a stunning transfer coup, beating Chelsea to the signing of a top target who has now agreed to a six-year deal. The player is expected to arrive TODAY to undergo his medical, with an official unveiling likely to follow soon.
Meanwhile, in ongoing efforts to strengthen the attack, United are still negotiating a deal for Bryan Mbeumo, who enjoyed a sensational 2024/25 season with Brentford, scoring 20 Premier League goals—surpassed only by Mohamed Salah, Erling Haaland, and Alexander Isak.
United’s opening £55 million bid was turned down, with Brentford holding out for a higher fee. Mbeumo has already made his preference clear—he wants to join Rúben Amorim’s side at Old Trafford.
However, the race has just become more intense, as Tottenham Hotspur have entered the mix, looking to hijack the deal following their appointment of **Thomas Frank, Mbeumo’s former manager at Brentford.
Despite Spurs’ interest, Manchester United remain in pole position. But club CEO Omar Berrada has made it clear that United won’t overpay.
If Brentford refuse to lower their demands, the Red Devils are prepared to walk away from the deal.
According to ESPN, United have a strict spending limit for Mbeumo and are already considering backup options. Should the deal fall through, the club will shift focus to Antoine Semenyo of Bournemouth or Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze.
The message from the United camp is firm: no more overpaying. Berrada is determined to avoid past transfer mistakes and bring in talent that matches both value and quality.
