What's the story

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in signing Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo as they aim to rival Manchester United. The 25-year-old Cameroon international had an impressive season last year, scoring 20 goals for the Bees in the Premier League. His former manager at Brentford, Thomas Frank, was appointed as Spurs boss on Thursday and could be instrumental in bringing his former player to North London. Here are further details.

Transfer status

Tottenham have not yet made a formal bid for Mbeumo

As per a report in BBC, despite the interest, Tottenham have not yet made a formal bid for Mbeumo. Earlier this month, Manchester United had a £45 million plus £10 million add-ons offer rejected by Brentford as it fell short of their valuation. However, it's understood that the Red Devils will improve their bid in order to get the player, whose contract with Brentford runs for another year but does have an option to extend it by one more year.

Career highlights

Mbeumo has scored 70 goals for Brentford

Since joining Brentford from Ligue 2 club Troyes in 2019, Mbeumo has scored an impressive 70 goals in 242 appearances. He played a key role in helping Brentford get promoted to the Premier League in 2021. He owns 42 goals and 28 assists in the Premier League from 136 appearances. His goal-scoring prowess has drawn interest from other Champions League clubs across Europe. Notably, there is no release clause in his current contract with Brentford, which further complicates potential transfer negotiations for the player.

Information

Mbuemo reportedly prefers a move to United

As per The Athletic's David Ornstein, the player is keen to join Ruben Amorim's United if they are able to strike a deal with the Bees. United are currently working on an improved deal to land the player.
