Brentford turned down Manchester United's second offer for Bryan Mbeumo worth 62.5 million pounds. The Premier League club rejected United's proposal of 55 million pounds with 7.5 million pounds in additional payments. United made their first attempt earlier this month at 45 million pounds with 10 million pounds in extras. The London team wants the same amount Wolverhampton received for Matheus Cunha paid immediately. Brentford refuses to accept installment deals for their star striker.
The 25-year-old Cameroon international delivered his best season for Brentford last campaign. Mbeumo found the net 20 times and created nine goals for teammates during the season. His contract runs for one more year at the Brentford Community Stadium. United already completed the signing of Cunha from Wolves for 62.5 million pounds. The Red Devils seek more attacking options to improve their goal output.
Several clubs want to sign Mbeumo from his current team. Tottenham manager Thomas Frank previously worked with the forward at Brentford. Champions League teams have shown interest in acquiring his services. Mbeumo arrived at Brentford from French club Troyes six years ago. The winger has scored 70 goals across 242 matches for the west London side.
Mbeumo will miss four weeks of next season due to international duty. Cameroon participates in the Africa Cup of Nations tournament held in Morocco. The tournament begins on December 24 when Cameroon faces Gabon. Andre Onana serves as Mbeumo's teammate on the national squad. United must consider this absence when planning their transfer strategy.
