DONE DEAL: Manchester United finally seal double transfer signings as both superstars are ready to be announced this today- Their squad number revealed
After weeks of trying and failing with multiple offers, Manchester United have finally given in to demands to hire the services of Bryan Mbeumo.
As per today’s edition of The Daily Star (news image provided below), Jeremy Cross has stated that Man Utd ‘have met’ the asking price and ‘agreed to pay’ £70million to lure the Cameroonian winger.
The journalist claims that Brentford have been asking for £70million and United have offered £65million fixed and £5million in add-ons for Mbeumo.
It is further mentioned that this is the final bid tabled by the Red Devils and they are assured that it will be accepted.
For The Mirror, David McDonnell, claims that the Bees have yet to respond to the last offer forwarded by the Old Trafford outfit, but a deal is now ‘likely’ to be agreed.
Man Utd are due to fly to Chicago on Tuesday where they will collide against Everton, Villa and Bournemouth and Amorim would want Mbeumo to travel along.
Once again, a club has taken advantage of the desperate situation United find themselves in to get the amount they want.
Let’s hope Brentford do not create any more problems for Sir Jim Ratcliffe by asking for a fixed fee of £70million.
Man Utd are not only having concerns in signing stars, they have also been unable to offload players who are not in the plans of Ruben Amorim.
Garnacho has been told to leave and unwanted players like Rashford, Antony and Sancho, who spent time on loan last term are still part of the United squad.
The 20-time English champions should sell them soon in order to attain funds to further reinforce the squad before the start of the new Premier League campaign.
