Manchester United Calm Over Bryan Mbeumo Transfer as Spurs Circle Brentford Star

Manchester United are reportedly taking a composed approach in their pursuit of Bryan Mbeumo, despite growing interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The Brentford forward, who is currently valued at over £60 million, has caught the eye of Spurs’ new boss Thomas Frank — his former manager — sparking speculation of a potential reunion in North London.

United’s initial offer, believed to be around £55 million, was firmly rejected by Brentford. However, the Red Devils remain interested and are likely to return with an improved bid. With Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo also on their radar, United appear to be weighing multiple attacking options ahead of a crucial summer rebuild.

Mbeumo’s stock has soared after an exceptional 2024/25 campaign in the Premier League. He netted 20 goals and provided 7 assists, but his underlying numbers tell an even more impressive story. He led the league in expected assists (9.26) and total crosses (202), highlighting his elite creative output. Physically, he was among the most industrious players in England’s top flight — ranking third in distance covered and sprint attempts, while reaching a blistering top speed of 36.63 km/h, the fourth-highest across the division.

Remarkably, the Cameroonian international also outperformed his expected goals (xG) by nearly eight, showcasing his clinical edge. His contributions directly impacted Brentford’s performance, with 27 goal involvements accounting for 22 of the club’s points — a staggering 40% of their total.

With both Manchester United and Tottenham weighing their next moves, Mbeumo’s future looks set to ignite a bidding war. But Brentford, while open to offers, won’t part with their star without top value in return.
