Manchester United have made an improved bid in the region of €70million for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, it has been reported.

Head coach Ruben Amorim is attempting to rebuild the Red Devils after seeing the club's worst top-flight season in 51 years compounded by a damaging Europa League final defeat to Tottenham.

[Matheus Cunha has joined from Wolves](https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2025/0601/1516197-manchester-united-agree-deal-to-sign-cunha-from-wolves/) in a €73m deal and United are seeking to bolster their attack further before pre-season gets under way on 7 July.

Having made initial contact with Brentford over Mbeumo earlier this month and reportedly seen a bid of €52.5m plus €11.5m in add-ons rejected, it is understood they have now made an offer reaching in excess of €70m.

Spurs, [now managed by Mbuemo’s ex-Bees boss Thomas Frank](https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2025/0618/1519218-frank-ready-to-take-first-steps-in-spurs-fairytale/), are also interested in the Cameroon international.

The 25-year-old’s contract at Brentford expires next summer, although there is an option to extend by a further year.
