Brentford sporting director Phil Giles says Bryan Mbeumo would be happy to stay at the club if a deal cannot be agreed with Manchester United this summer transfer window.
Mbeumo had an amazing season last year for Brentford and firmly established himself as one of the best forwards in the Premier League, with his performces attracting interest from the likes of Tottenham and Manchester United.
United and Brentford have held talks and the player wants the move to Old Trafford, and Sky Sports News understands Brentford want in excess of £65m for Mbeumo and United have so far offered a package rising to £62.5m.
Now Giles has exclusively told Sky Sports News that there is a deal to do only if is “right” for Brentford – he said: “There is significant interest in Bryan. It’s been well publicised about, his current preference.
“He had an unbelievable season and we expected interest in him.
“From what I understand he is, also, if needs be, happy to stay at Brentford next year as well.
“We’ve spoken to Bryan and his representatives. It’s not a given that he’s going to depart this summer.
“If we get the right offer, there is the potential for a deal to be done but there is only so much we can say now on that.”

Manchester United will be very lucky to get Mbeumo this transfer window, he is ready to make that next step in his career and a move to a massive club needs to happen.
If United really wants the player then they will need to splash the cash, it is only a couple of million more that Brentford wants, no point is losing out over a few million.
