The most recent transfer news from Manchester United is that the club is in the process of finalizing a deal to acquire the Brentford forward. However, the announcement may be postponed as a result of the transfer window.
Ruben Amorim has been endeavoring to enhance his squad in anticipation of a more prosperous 2025/26 season, which is why Manchester United have been so active in the transfer window thus far.
Matheus Cunha, the Wolves forward, was acquired for £62.5 million by the Portuguese manager at the outset of the transfer window. However, it is anticipated that additional attacking talent will be added to the squad before the summer concludes.
The club has reportedly returned with a higher offer in an effort to finalize a deal, despite having seen a proposal of £55 million for the Bees rejected.
Tottenham Hotspur has also expressed interest in Mbeumo, which has caused United a mild concern regarding a potential deal. Brentford’s manager, Thomas Frank, is reportedly interested in bringing Mbeumo with him, as Spurs are nearing the appointment of Frank as a successor for Ange Postecoglou.
Nevertheless, the Cameroon international is rumored to be in favor of a transfer to Old Trafford, as he has designated the club as his preferable destination. United anticipates that the transfer will proceed in the coming days; however, it may now experience a delay in its official completion.
This is as a result of the summer transfer window officially concluding at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, June 10. In order to facilitate the expansion of their rosters for the club World Cup, clubs have implemented an earlier-than-usual transfer window.
Due to limitations on the duration of a transfer window, it must be temporarily closed before reopening later this month. Consequently, any agreements that are reached subsequent to that deadline will not be considered officially finalized until the transfer window reopens on Monday, June 16.
This will be the case with Mbeumo and United. The clubs will be able to continue working on a deal in the background, as they did with Cunha before the window opened, despite the fact that the window expires at 7 p.m.
United could theoretically proclaim his arrival at the club. However, Mbeumo would not be officially a United player until June 16, and the transaction would not be finalized until then.
The forward is anticipated to reunite with the rest of the United squad for the first time upon their return for pre-season, which will follow the brief tour of Asia in May, provided that a contract is finalized in plenty of time. The squad typically returns at the beginning of July.
