🚨For €75m: Media report United seal next mega deal
After last season, Manchester United has a lot to make up for with its own fans and already seems eager to take the initiative in the transfer market. Following Matheus Cunha, the next expensive attacking star is now being brought in. According to consistent reports from English media, Bryan Mbeumo is coming from Brentford FC. The reports state that the transfer fee is around 75 million euros plus bonuses. The 25-year-old was indeed one of the breakout stars of the Premier League last season, scoring 20 goals and providing eight assists, but the sum can still be considered quite hefty. Mbeumo's contract with Brentford would have expired in the summer of 2026. For comparison: Cunha, who still had a contract with Wolverhampton until 2029, costs only five million more.

He spent 12 years with Liverpool, winning the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League in 2020 among numerous other trophies, before a lucrative move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq two years ago. Henderson was accused of putting money above principles, having previously spoken out in support of the LGBTQ community. His contract with Al-Ettifaq was cancelled just six months later. Henderson subsequently joined Ajax, earning the captaincy and making 57 appearances for the Dutch club.
