Brentford set transfer priorities amid interest in Mbeumo and Wissa
Brentford Transfers: Summer Shake-Up on the Horizon Mbeumo and Wissa under the spotlight Brentford's summer transfer window looks poised to test the club's resolve and recruitment strategy. With top-six sides circling, the futures of star forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa remain delicately poised. Together they delivered 39 Premier League goals last season, providing the bite that kept Brentford competitive across the campaign. Advertisement Manchester United are preparing to open talks over Mbeumo. A reported £60 million could tempt Brentford's hierarchy to negotiate. Wissa, too, is attracting serious attention. Tottenham made overtures in January and Nottingham Forest saw a £22 million bid rejected. While no fresh offers have yet landed, interest is expected to escalate as the window progresses. Their potential departures leave a considerable void. Thomas Frank and his recruitment team know that replacing either player—let alone both—would be far from straightforward. Forward planning already underway Brentford's response has been proactive. The club has already confirmed a deal for Liverpool's Caoimhin Kelleher, bringing the Republic of Ireland international in for £18 million including add-ons. Mark Flekken's move to Bayer Leverkusen for £11 million created the opening, and Brentford wasted no time filling it. Photo: IMAGO They also moved for 18-year-old talent Romelle Donovan from Birmingham City, a £3 million deal which could rise with performance-related bonuses. Donovan impressed while on loan and joins with a long-term view to development, but his arrival won't impact the more immediate need for frontline reinforcements. Advertisement The priority now? A goalscoring winger, preferably right-sided. Despite Kevin Schade's growth over the past 18 months, the Bees have leaned too heavily on Mbeumo and Wissa. That over-reliance has been acknowledged internally. Nigeria international Christantus Uche, currently at Getafe, has been linked. While a deal isn't close, he fits the club's profile: versatile, quick and with resale potential. Midfield and centre-back options being reviewed Brentford also aim to strengthen in midfield, specifically targeting a box-to-box No8 and a more defensively-minded option. That comes even after securing promising Ukrainian Yehor Yarmoliuk to a long-term deal. Advertisement At the back, the Bees are unlikely to invest heavily at full-back. Michael Kayode's loan from Fiorentina has been made permanent for £14.8 million, shoring up the wide defensive positions. The focus now is on spotting undervalued centre-backs—a Brentford speciality in past windows. Uncertainty at managerial level Perhaps most intriguingly, manager Thomas Frank could yet become part of the summer movement. Spurs are reportedly monitoring the Danish coach as they weigh their next step. While no formal approach has been made, it adds another layer of unpredictability to Brentford's off-season. Sales are expected beyond Mbeumo and Wissa. Mads Roerslev and Frank Onyeka are available at the right price, with offers anticipated once bigger moves begin to shape the market. Brentford's transfer window is rarely dull. This one, though, could be season-defining.

Report – Inter Milan Chief Executive In London To Negotiate Arrival Of Wantaway Manchester United Striker
Report – Inter Milan Chief Executive In London To Negotiate Arrival Of Wantaway Manchester United Striker Inter Milan chief Piero Ausilio is currently in London, where he's trying to secure the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United. Per FCInterNews, a deal for Cesc Fabregas wasn't the only reason behind Ausilio's trip to the United Kingdom. Advertisement Indeed, everyone thought he was there only to convince the Como manager to accept Inter's proposal. However, there's more than meets the eye. It seems Piero Ausilio is working on another project. He's seemingly negotiating Hojlund's transfer from Man Utd. Inter Milan Chief Piero Ausilio Negotiating Rasmus Hojlund Deal in London MANCHESTER, ENGLAND – MAY 11: Rasmus Hojlund of Manchester United reacts during the Premier League match between Manchester United FC and West Ham United FC at Old Trafford on May 11, 2025 in Manchester, England. (Photo by) Juventus were on the verge of signing Rasmus Hojlund last week. However, Cristiano Giuntoli's dismissal has seen the deal fall through, opening the door for Inter to swoop in and sign him. Man Utd paid Atalanta around €80 million to bring the 22-year-old to Old Trafford in 2023. Advertisement Yet, it's a near-certainty that they cannot recoup their investment. But they can at least offload his hefty salary, which is where Inter come into play. Low in the pecking order under Ruben Amorim, Hojlund may be open to the possibility of returning to Serie A.

A guide to multi-club ownership: How does it work?

Red Bull-related clubs Leeds United (top-left), Salzburg (top-right), Leipzig (bottom-left) and New York (bottom-right). | Credit: Future Multi-club ownership is increasingly common in football, with plenty of big-money owners splashing out to take control of several clubs around the world. Advertisement Take Red Bull, for instance. They have varying stakes in Leeds United, FC Liefering, New York Red Bulls, Paris FC, RB Leipzig, TV Omiya Ardija, Red Bull Bragantino and Red Bull Salzburg. Several English clubs are part of similar models to different degrees, including Manchester City, Chelsea, Manchester United, Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, and… well, loads more, including down in the lower leagues. So what are the rules on multi-club ownership? Can you own two clubs in the same league? Sir Jim Ratcliffe was linked with buying Chelsea before he bought Manchester United – and he certainly couldn't buy the Blues now | Credit: Getty Images Not in England you can't, certainly not at Premier League and EFL level. The EFL Owners and Directors' Test will automatically disqualify directors who hold an 'interest' in more than one club within the EFL, while the Premier League's own rules say that 'no Person may either directly or indirectly be involved in or have any power to determine or influence the management or administration of more than one [Premier League] Club.' Advertisement While that only applies within each league, the FA have an overarching rule with the same wording as the Premier League that applies to the entire English football pyramid. There is some suggestion that one person/company could own a stake of less than 25%, which would not represent significant control of any one club. That's a higher threshold than is set by UEFA; their rules mean a majority owner of one club could have a less than 50 per cent stake in another club playing in the same competition. That's the lowest bar available, though, and it's up to individual countries' FA to decide if they want to be stricter. Can two clubs from the same ownership compete in Europe? Girona's participation in Europe asked questions of UEFA | Credit: Getty Images This increasingly contentious issue came to a head in 2024 after Girona qualified for the Champions League and Nice qualified for the Europa League. Advertisement The issue was the Girona are part of the City Football Group alongside Manchester City, who also qualified for the Champions League. Manchester United meanwhile joined Nice in the Europa League; both clubs are at least part-owned by INEOS, headed by Sir Jim Ratcliffe. UEFA ultimately decided that each pair of clubs could compete in the same continental competition as long as: No one is simultaneously involved, directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever in the management, administration and/or sporting performance of more than one club participating in a UEFA club competition; and No one has control or decisive influence over more than one club participating in a UEFA club competition. Essentially, then, no one person can be involved in the running or decision-making of two or more clubs within a single UEFA competition. City Football Group and INEOS swiftly made sure they were in line with that, and all four clubs were permitted entry to their respective competitions. That's why Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis recently officially ceased to be a 'person of significant control' at the club. Advertisement Forest could potentially end up qualifying for either the Champions League or Europa League with Greek side Olympiacos next season. They're also owned by Marinakis, and so he had to officially step away from Forest to ensure they didn't run into any trouble should that occur. On top of that, clubs in that kind of situation have to apply to UEFA to get the all-clear to proceed into competition against one another. For 2024/25, UEFA allowed clubs to transfer the club to an 'independent third party', like a blind trust, which would be appointed to look out for the interests of that club only, without any consideration for the wider ownership group. Do clubs from the same ownership share resources? City are part of a much bigger network | Credit: Getty Images As far as we can tell, there's nothing to stop them from sharing scouting info and things like that as long as they're not in the same European competition as one another. Advertisement UEFA are keen to ensure that clubs remain independent from one another. To that end, they got a commitment from City Football Group and INEOS that they would not transfer players to one another until September 2025, nor would they 'conclude any kind of cooperation, joint technical or commercial agreements between each other' or 'use any joint scouting or player database'. It seems likely that they would ask for a similar commitment from any other clubs who face a similar situation in future. What's to stop clubs from the same ownership transferring players to each other for free? Red Bull players have often moved between clubs | Credit:Three words: 'associated party transactions'. Advertisement In the Premier League, the rules say that any transfers between 'associated parties' (i.e. clubs within the same ownership group) need to be assessed by the Premier League first to see whether they represent 'fair market value'. What that means is a judgement call for the Premier League assessors, but they could put a halt to any proposed transfer that was 'evidently not' at fair market value. We're not sure it would really be in clubs' interests to try and fiddle it that way, anyway. Each league has its own version of the Premier League's Profit & Sustainability Rules that need to be met. In their current form, both clubs would generally be better off just doing trades between themselves at 'fair market value' anyway, for boring accounting reasons that we won't get into here.
