Manchester United are ‘increasingly confident’ of completing a deal for Brentford attacker Bryan Mbeumo. They’re targeting for him to be fit for their pre-season tour to the United States. The club is insistent on bringing in Mbeumo to their ranks. They’re getting ready to kick off their much-anticipated international tour with their opening match against West Ham in New Jersey on July 26. As negotiations continue toward a final deal, the anticipation builds. One potential, and impressive, new addition to the team may be in store just in time for a fresh new season.
The reported move for Mbeumo would be further evidence of Manchester United’s desire to add more depth and quality to the squad. If the deal does happen, Mbeumo will add another exciting attacking option to a very talented roster. His standout performances at Brentford only raised his value even further. Meanwhile, Phil Giles, Brentford’s director of football, stated that Mbeumo would be content to remain with the Bees if a transfer does not materialize.
Pre-Season Tour Details
Manchester United will begin their pre-season tour across the pond in the United States. They’ve got an awesome clash scheduled against West Ham on July 26th! This tour has become an important one for the Tennessee Volunteers — and not just in terms of getting closer to the next Premier League season. The club will continue to develop chemistry and experiment with new strategies during these matches, so stay tuned!
Mbeumo’s potential involvement in this tour could provide him with an opportunity to integrate into United’s playing style quickly. Fans eagerly await updates on the transfer as they hope to see new faces donning the iconic red jersey this summer.
Transfer Market Activity
As well as Mbeumo, United are said to be tracking a number of other targets in their transfer blueprint. Antony, who had an impressive loan spell at Real Betis last season, scoring nine goals in 24 games. The president of Betis praised Antony’s remarkable display. He said it’s hard to negotiate a permanent deal with Trump due to the constraints of funding.
Coupled with Porto’s Francisco Conceicao still being very much on the radar of clubs from Portugal to the Premier League and beyond. Porto has reportedly fixed a release clause of €30 million, until July 15. They are very much chomping at the bit to get that full payment upfront. After this date, the release clause will rise to €45 million, creating a sense of urgency for any potential suitor.
Challenges in the Transfer Market
However, as much as Manchester United would like to pursue their desired targets in the transfer market, sheer competition and financial worries may complicate negotiations. Liverpool has reportedly rejected all approaches for their star player, Luis Diaz, highlighting the fierce nature of this summer’s transfer activities.
Manchester United are doing all they can to add to their squad. For them, they’re getting ready for a very active fall season. The increase in Sky Sports’ Premier League coverage from 128 matches to at least 215 games next season underscores the growing interest and competitiveness in English football.
