Transfer: 'It Would Embarrassing' - Parker Warns Man United as Tottenham Move to Hijack Mbeumo's Deal

GREATER MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, JUL 12 – Manchester United face a transfer fee dispute with Brentford as they seek to sign Bryan Mbeumo, who scored 20 Premier League goals last season and prefers a move to Old Trafford.

  • Manchester United is working to finalize the signing of Cameroonian forward Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford ahead of their upcoming pre-season tour, which begins on July 19 with matches scheduled in both Sweden and the United States.
  • Brentford has rejected two offers, including a £55 million bid in early June and a higher second offer over £60 million, due to unsettled payment terms and a firm valuation of £62.5 million.
  • Mbeumo, valued for his 20 goals and 8 assists last Premier League season, prefers joining Manchester United despite interest from Tottenham and Newcastle, with his increasing frustration linked to the prolonged talks.
  • Former United player Paul Parker said, "It would be very embarrassing if Manchester United fails to sign Bryan Mbeumo," emphasizing the club's responsibility to complete the deal.
  • If signed, Mbeumo will become Brentford's most expensive sale, while United also face a goalkeeper injury concern with Andre Onana out for pre-season, raising questions about further transfers.
