Manchester United are still leading the race to sign a key transfer target.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils are competing with Tottenham Hotspur, their recent Europa League final rivals, in the summer transfer window. After missing out on a major trophy, United are determined not to lose another crucial battle \u2014 this time in the transfer market \u2014 as they fight to sign Brentford\u2019s star winger, Bryan Mbeumo.<\/p>\n

Tottenham\u2019s chances have improved with the hiring of former Brentford boss Thomas Frank, who is keen to reunite with Mbeumo. This has strengthened Spurs\u2019 position, but United still seem confident about sealing the deal for the Cameroon international.<\/p>\n

Reporter Florian Plettenberg stated that Spurs, under Frank\u2019s leadership, are pushing hard to convince Mbeumo to join them. However, Manchester United have already opened talks with Brentford, and Mbeumo has reportedly given his approval to join the Red Devils. A verbal agreement is already in place, with United optimistic about completing the transfer.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, The Mirror<\/em> revealed that Tottenham submitted a \u00a370 million bid \u2014 \u00a365 million upfront and \u00a35 million in add-ons \u2014 to try and hijack United\u2019s move for the player. Spurs\u2019 chairman, Daniel Levy, is also pushing for the signing as a major statement for the club.<\/p>\n

United\u2019s Initial Offer Rejected<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Despite Spurs offering more, Mbeumo is said to prefer a move to Old Trafford. United\u2019s initial \u00a355 million offer was rejected by Brentford, but they are preparing an improved bid to secure the winger quickly.<\/p>\n

Mbeumo reportedly views Manchester United as his preferred destination,<\/em> leaving the final hurdle as an agreement on the transfer fee between the clubs.<\/p>\n

In addition to pursuing Mbeumo, United are also looking to sign an experienced striker to solve their scoring problems. They managed just 44 goals in the Premier League last season \u2014 one of the lowest tallies in the league. New manager Ruben Amorim is determined to bolster the attack, but the competition in the transfer market is intense as several clubs chase the same key players<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
