Bryan Mbeumo is keen on a move to Manchester United – but his reported wage demands are raising serious eyebrows 👀
According to The Times, the Brentford star is asking for a £250k-per-week deal to make the jump to Old Trafford. That’s a fivefold increase from the £50k he’s on now. You’d be forgiven for thinking it was a typo.
📉 United are fresh off another underwhelming season and looking to reload under new boss Ruben Amorim. After snapping up Matheus Cunha for £62.5m, Mbeumo looks like the next name on the wishlist.
🗣️ Fabrizio Romano says the 25-year-old has made United his top priority, despite interest from three other Premier League sides. Negotiations with Brentford are heating up.
💰 Brentford want more than £50m – and are pointing to the Cunha deal as their benchmark. United think they can talk that number down, especially with Mbeumo pushing for the move.
🔥 Stat check:
Mbeumo was 🔥 in the 24/25 season.

But is £250k/week United money? Fans aren’t so sure.
