Man Utd fans give up after latest Bryan Mbeumo deal update. Just days into pre-season, their patience is already wearing thin.
Mbeumo Deal Drama Sparks Fan Meltdown
Manchester United supporters have been thrown into chaos as the deal to sign Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo has hit a major blow.
Just a week into pre-season, fans are already doubting the club’s summer plans. The Red Devils and Brentford remain far apart in their valuations for the 25-year-old winger. Meanwhile, Mbeumo has already agreed personal terms with Utd. But, the Bees have rejected two bids. The latest being £55m plus £7.5m in add-ons.
Brentford are standing firm on their £65m upfront demand. It once looked like a done deal now appears to be slipping through Utd’s fingers. The fans have taken to social media in anger. They are calling the transfer window a disaster already.
Brentford Not Backing Down
Mbeumo was keen on the move to Man Utd, even turning down interest from Spurs. He could have reunited with former manager Thomas Frank there. But with the deal on hld, he’s been forced back into training at Brentford.
The Bees are making it clear, they won’t be pushed around. They’ve already lost key figures this summer, including Frank to Tottenham and captain Christian Norgaard to Arsenal. Also, the interest in striker Yoane Wissa heating up. So, Brentford have no intention of letting Mbeumo go unless their asking price is met.
The West London club are also preparing for the future. They are eyeing Ipswich’s Omari Hutchinson as a possible Mbeumo replacement. Meanwhile, they’ve secured the surprise signing of Jordan Henderson on a free, showing they still mean business.
But for United, the failure to land Mbeumo so far is a blow. This move is the one that fans fear could define another poor season.
