Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Bryan Mbeumo after they reached an agreement with Brentford, who have made their asking price clear this summer

Rene Meulensteen believes Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo’s arrival at Old Trafford could spell bad news for one of their new Manchester United teammates. United have made attacking reinforcements a number-one priority in the summer transfer window having scored only 44 Premier League goals last season.

The Manchester Evening News are reporting that United are keen to add a striker to his roster, with Viktor Gyokeres having been heavily linked to an Amorim reunion. Sporting have made it clear they won’t be selling for anything less than £68m, with the Swedish international having reportedly told the Portuguese club he won’t play for them again.
