Mbeumo Brentford
After Mohamed Salah, Bryan Mbeumo was without doubt the best right winger in the recently concluded Premier League campaign.
The Cameroonian is a wanted man in the market by unfortunately, as per the latest reports going on in the media, Manchester United are expected to lose out in the race to lure him.

As per today’s version of The Chronicle (news image provided below), Newcastle have the advantage over Man Utd to sign Mbeumo from the Bees in the summer transfer window.
The media outlet have mentioned that the Old Trafford outfit have been looking to move for the African superstar, however, the Magpies have the edge to secure the £60m-£65m rated star.
Mbeumo has already confirmed that he wants to play in the biggest of competitions next season and Newcastle can offer him Champions League football, on the other hand, Man Utd will not take part in any European tournament next term.
The 25-year-old started in every Premier League game for Brentford last term and directly contributed in no fewer than 28 goals (20 goals and 8 assists).
If Newcastle can get him, they will likely utilize him with the dynamic duo Isak and Gordon in the attack.
Situation at Old Trafford
Manchester United can welcome back wingers like Sancho, Rashford and Antony for the next campaign. The trio impressed on loan but they were absolutely average at Old Trafford.
Antony proved to be a major hit in the right wing position for Real Betis and scored a few wonder goals. However, Amorim likes to play a 3-4-2-1 formation and the Brazilian could not function in the right wing back role.
Therefore, the right option would be to get as much as cash from the sale of the Samba star and replace him with a quality winger.
Mbeumo would be brilliant for Man Utd but if he really wants Champions League football then Newcastle have the edge and the Red Devils must look elsewhere.
In your view, who should Amorim sign to reinforce the offense at Old Trafford?
