Man Utd see second bid for Bryan Mbeumo rejected in fresh transfer saga twist
Manchester United submitted a second improved offer of £55million plus a further £7.5m in add-ons on Monday for Bryan Mbeumo, but have seen the offer for the forward rejected Manchester United's attempts to sign Bryan Mbeumo have suffered a blow after Brentford rejected their second offer for the forward. United want to add Mbeumo to their squad after landing Matheus Cunha, but negotiations have been far from straightforward. Cunha joined United for £62.5million from Wolves earlier in June and the club quickly identified Mbeumo as the second player they wanted for their new-look attack. The Cameroon international scored 20 goals in the Premier League last season and has attracted interest from United, Tottenham, Newcastle and Arsenal. Mbeumo has his heart set on moving to Old Trafford and has told Brentford and his former manager, Thomas Frank, that he won't be joining him at Tottenham. Yet Ruben Amorim is still waiting to land the 25-year-old right winger, with the Bees playing hard ball. The Athletic says that United's improved bid of £55m and £7.5m of bonuses, which was submitted on Monday, has been rejected by Brentford. It followed an opening offer of £45m plus £10m. Brentford, naturally, want the bulk of the fee paid up front, while United would prefer to spread out the cost. While Tottenham made their interest known, they never submitted an official offer for Mbeumo. And the north London club are understood to have moved on after Mbeumo informed Frank personally of his preference to join United. United will continue negotiations with Brentford over Mbeumo and are still confident of getting a deal done. That confidence is based on the player's wishes and the fact that they don't need to sell their unwanted players to fund the move. HAVE YOUR SAY! Is Bryan Mbeumo the right player for Manchester United? Comment below. They are understood to be willing to offer Mbeumo between £150,000-£175,000-a-week, with bonuses taking that expected package to £200,000-a-week. He is under contract with the Bees until June 2026, but the club also have the option to extend it by a further 12 months. Mbeumo has been with Brentford since 2019, when he joined for £5.8m from French side Troyes. He has contributed 70 goals and 51 assists in 242 appearances for the club altogether and looks set to follow in the footsteps of Ivan Toney is leaving west London. Brentford have already banked £10m from Spurs in compensation for Frank and are braced for a summer of upheaval. They announced the appointment of Keith Andrews as Frank's replacement on Friday, but look set to lose Mbeumo and captain Christian Norgaard, who is the subject of a £9.3m bid from Arsenal. United are rebuilding their squad under Amorim and are attempting to sell Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia and Jadon Sancho, among others. Rashford has his heart set on Barcelona, Garnacho has been linked with Chelsea and Napoli and Sancho has reportedly agreed to join Fenerbahce.

Hamza Igamane to Lille could be OFF as Rangers ‘stand firm' on megabucks transfer fee
MONEY TALKS Hamza Igamane to Lille could be OFF as Rangers 'stand firm' on megabucks transfer fee LILLE have backed down in their pursuit of Rangers star Hamza Igamane, after being put off by the Ibrox club's asking price. The Ligue 1 side made a serious push to sign the Light Blues forward this week, going as far as agreeing personal terms. Advertisement 1 Hamza Igamane celebrating his goal against Celtic from back in March Credit: PA Gers bought the Moroccan for £1.7million last summer but were demanding a transfer fee in the region of £15million for the 22-year-old. The player himself was reported to be keen on exploring the move after talks were held with his agent but Lille weren't willing to match Rangers' evaluation. According to the Daily Record, the French outfit have now switched their focus to other targets on their summer wishlist until such a point as Gers reduce his price tag. It's understood that is unlikely however, with the Light Blues comfortable that they won't be pressured into rushing into a sale. Advertisement Reports claim the Ibrox club have received NO official bid from Lille, suggesting the Mastiffs were indeed put off by the hefty fee. More to follow.
