Manchester United make improved Bryan Mbuemo offer

RTÉ News​17-07-2025
Manchester United have made an improved bid worth up to £70million for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo.
The 25-year-old has been a key target for Ruben Amorim's Red Devils, who made a first approach of £45m plus £10m in potential add-ons six weeks ago.
United followed that up with an improved proposal exceeding £60m a few weeks later but talks stalled as Brentford held on for a greater fee for Mbeumo.
The Old Trafford club have now made a new offer that is understood to be worth £65m plus an additional £5m in potential add-ons as they attempt to sign the player before their pre-season tour.
Amorim's men head to the United States on Tuesday and have so far only signed Brazil international Matheus Cunha from Wolves for a fee of £62.5m.
Mbeumo joined Brentford from Troyes in 2019 and has a year left on his deal, albeit there is an option to extend by a further year.
Tottenham Hotspur, managed by former Bees boss Thomas Frank, have shown interest but the Cameroon international is understood to have expressed a desire to move to Old Trafford.
United are looking to rebuild after slumping home 15th last season and losing the Europa League final to Tottenham, meaning they missed out on Champions League qualification and European football entirely.
Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia are searching for new homes.
Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof have left on free transfers, while Jonny Evans has retired.

The pair first met in 2022, welcomed baby Aria in 2023 and tied the knot in a plush 2024 bash straight out of a fairy tale. But it's not all roses and romance, they're juggling marriage and parenthood from different countries.

The Olympic gymnast is recovering from having surgery on his shoulder which he remarked can be the 'reality of sport'. Rhys is in good spirits after the surgery. Pic: Instagram @rhysmcc1 Rhys wrote: 'Day 1 of recovery from shoulder surgery'. 'I've been struggling with this injury for a while now, so I'm delighted that everything went to plan with the operation and I can make my way back to maintaining my spot as the best in the world at what I do. 'This is the reality of sport, and I love all of the challenges it throws my way. Champion Mindset.' Earlier this year, the gold medalist was forced to withdraw from the European Championships in Leipzig because of an unspecified injury. Rhys McClenaghan in action at the Olympics.

'I chose to prioritise being healthy and recovering for future competitions this year and be sure that I can put out my best work yet. 'I may not be retaining my European title but the path to being the GOAT is still very clear.' His fellow Dancing with the Stars team were quick to send their well wishes in the comment section of his recent post. Kylee Vincent wrote: 'Speedy recovery', with Karen Byrne adding the same message and Brian Redmond saying: 'Get better soon champ. I hope the feet are still at their exceptional best.'

He said: 'This time last year, I was at the Olympic Games and today I'm in a hospital bed. 'I think this is why sport is such a great example for life. 'One moment, you're on top of the world and the next, well, you're not. 'Well because to have the good days, I think you have to have the bad days. 'I also think that this is one of the reasons why I love what I do so much because even though I'm in a bad situation currently, I know that when I'm back competing in front of millions again, when I finish that routine, it's going to feel so much sweeter. 'But that comeback starts today.'
