Manchester United have reached an agreement with Brentford to sign Bryan Mbeumo.
United submitted an improved offer of £65m plus £6m in add-ons on Thursday. Their previous bid of £55m plus £7.5m in add-ons was rejected several weeks ago.
Now, their improved offer has been accepted by the Bees. The player has two years left on his current deal.
United are hopeful the deal can be completed in time for Mbeumo to be part of the club’s pre-season tour of the United States. The squad leave on July 22.
Mbeumo is a player United have admired for a while and he is seen as a good fit for Ruben Amorim’s system.
There is a feeling at Brentford that Mbeumo has earned the chance to move to a bigger club this summer if one meets his valuation.
United have already agreed a deal to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m.
What do the stats say?
Sky Sports Data Editor Adam Smith:
Bryan Mbeumo scored 20 goals in the Premier League last season to help Brentford secure a top-half finish – only three players scored more.
He also notched seven assists but should have registered more, clocking a league-topping 9.26 expected assists during the campaign – primarily from delivering a table-topping 202 crosses.
Additionally, only two players covered more distance or attempted more sprints for the season, making him one of the hardest grafters in the league. He also provides serious pace – clocking the fourth-fastest speed at 36.63 km/h.
Bryan Mbeumo excelled in the stats last season
Only Mohamed Salah collected more form points than Mbeumo last term, according to the Sky Sports Power Rankings.
Factoring in decisive goals or assists that changed the outcomes of games, his 27 goal contributions earned Brentford 22 points – equating to 40 per cent of the Bees’ season tally.
