Manchester United are pushing to sign Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, and Fabrizio Romano has provided details on his wage demands, writing in his exclusive GIVEMESPORT newsletter.
The Red Devils are set for a busy summer transfer window as they look to turn things around after a disastrous season. United finished in the bottom half of the Premier League table, and were beaten in the Europa League final by Tottenham Hotspur, meaning they won't be playing European football next term.
The Manchester outfit have already confirmed the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, but they don't appear to be stopping there. Ruben Amorim's side appear to be in the market for another forward, with Mbeumo a player the Red Devils are looking to bring to Old Trafford.

Writing in his exclusive GIVEMESPORT newsletter, Romano has confirmed that Mbeumo wants an 'important' salary if he is to join a club like United this summer. The respected journalist confirms it was a similar story for Cunha, and it's standard practice when joining a club the size of United...
"For sure he wants an important salary but nothing different compared to other players, like Cunha and more. It's normal. When you go to this sort of clubs, you always request an important salary."

GIVEMESPORT sources recently confirmed that United are planning to make a move to secure the signature of Mbeumo in the coming weeks, even if Bruno Fernandes stays at the club. United are expected to enter talks soon, with Mbeumo unfazed by their lack of Champions League football. It has now been confirmed by Sky Sports that United have initiated contact for the signing of Mbeumo.
According to a report from The Times, Mbeumo could look to demand in the region of £250,000-a-week to make the move to Old Trafford. It's a big salary for United to commit to, but they might be forced to do so considering their struggles in the Premier League of late.
