How much is Bryan Mbeumo going to earn at Manchester United? EXPLAINED
With a 71-million-euro move to Manchester United, Bryan Mbeumo is making headlines for both his transfer fee and upcoming paycheck. The 25-year-old forward has earned a reputation for clinical finishing and will now see that reflected in his bank account. United's five-year deal guarantees him a wage that places him among the club's top earners. Here's a breakdown of exactly what Mbeumo will take home, along with the expectations that come with his extremely lucrative contract. Mbeumo's big leap: New money, new club Bryan Mbeumo's journey from Ligue 2 prospect to Premier League star has certainly hit a major milestone. His decision to prioritize MUFC over Tottenham, Arsenal, and Newcastle has paid off in more ways than one. Beyond a spot in Ruben Amorim's reshaped attack, Mbeumo is also walking into a major wage upgrade. According to the Daily Express, he will earn EUR 150,000 per week on a five-year deal, pushing his annual salary to roughly EUR 7.8 million before bonuses. From bargain buy to EUR 71M headline signing In 2019, Brentford paid just EUR 5.8 million to sign Mbeumo from French club Troyes. Over six seasons, he delivered 70 goals in 242 appearances, including 20 in the 2024-25 campaign alone. His growth was steady, not explosive, but it made him a Premier League regular. Last year, he bounced back from ankle surgery and finished as Brentford's top scorer. That return to form sealed interest from top clubs, but Mbeumo had already informed Brentford he'd only leave for United. What United are getting for the money Mbeumo is expected to slot into one of the No.10 roles in Ruben Amorim's 3-4-2-1 system, offering cutting runs, link-up play, and a proven eye for goal. He also brings durability, having missed just 16 league matches in four seasons, and a near-perfect penalty record. For United, his arrival fills a desperate need— they managed just 44 league goals last season, their worst ever Premier League tally. For Mbeumo, it's the financial and footballing leap he's worked years to earn.

Ruben Amorim 'patience wearing thin' despite Man Utd's Bryan Mbeumo transfer breakthrough
Manchester United are set to complete the signing of Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, joining Matheus Cunha at Old Trafford, but manager Ruben Amorim is keen for more arrivals Bryan Mbeumo will team up with his new Manchester United team-mates in time to head to Chicago this week. United fly to the States on Tuesday and Mbeumo is expected to join them after the Red Devils finally agreed a deal with Brentford for the forward. A fee of £65million plus £6m add ons satisfied Brentford with Mbeumo set to be on the plane as United head to America to face West Ham, Bournemouth and Everton in the Premier League Summer Series. United boss Ruben Amorim has been left frustrated by those in charge at the club given how long it took to get the Mbeumo deal done. While the United hierarchy acted swiftly to confirm the £62.5m signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, over a month has passed since then and no other signings have arrived. United's pursuit of Mbeumo stalled before a deal was finally struck for the 25-year-old. Although Amorim acknowledges the unwillingness of those in charge at United to repeat the mistakes of the past that led the club towards a financial abyss, the Portuguese head coach knows he needs new signings in place now if he is to have any chance of resurrecting the fallen giants from their lowest point for half a century. Amorim has continued his uncompromising, hardline stance, exiling five players from training in Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Tyrell Malaica, after all expressed their desire to move. Yet while all five outcasts - at this point - remain unsold and grounded for the US tour, Amorim's rebuilding plans are compromised, with United needing to sell before they can buy. As well as Mbeumo, Amorim wants to sign a creative midfielder and a proven goalscorer to lead United's attack, with Rasmus Hojlund clearly not up to the task. Amorim wanted all of his targets signed before United's pre-season tour, to give them as much time as possible to adapt to his demands and to integrate them fully with their new team-mates and environment. The boss's patience is understandably wearing thin as he is forced to work with one hand tied behind his back and the new season looming large on the horizon.

Thomas Frank can't hide true feelings as Man Utd agree £71m Bryan Mbeumo transfer
Tottenham boss Thomas Frank wanted to bring Bryan Mbeumo with him to north London but the Brentford star is now poised to join Manchester United in a big-money transfer Thomas Frank showed his class by acknowledging that Bryan Mbeumo is fully deserving of a big move as he closes in on a transfer to Manchester United - even though the Dane wanted to reunite with his star forward at Tottenham. Mbeumo, 25, has been courted by top clubs this summer after breaking the 20-goal barrier in the Premier League for the first time last season. Arsenal, Newcastle and Spurs have all been credited with an interest in the Cameroon star, along with United. Frank oversaw Mbeumo's fine season at Brentford before moving to Tottenham and wanted to bring the versatile attacker with him to north London. But Mbeumo only had eyes for United and is now close to getting his wish with a deal worth £71million including add-ons now in place. Despite missing out on a deal for his former player, there were no sour grapes from Frank as he addressed the press as Spurs manager for the first time; and he even took the opportunity to sing Mbeumo's praises. "Bryan, of course, is a fantastic player," Frank said. "I have been with him for five years. I think he deserved the move, no matter where he goes. "As a player I wish him all the best when you've been with a player for so long." Mbeumo is expected to undergo a medical and finalise his switch to Manchester United over the weekend before joining Ruben Amorim 's squad on their pre-season tour of the United States. He joins Matheus Cunha through the door at Old Trafford this summer as the club set about revamping their attack after scoring just 44 goals in the Premier League last season. United are expected to step up their efforts to sign a new No 9 once Mbeumo's switch has been concluded, though they may need to offload some of the players who have been deemed surplus to requirements before they can sanction any further big-money deals. Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho are among those available for transfer this summer. However, nothing has been agreed in terms of a transfer for any of the players as yet, meaning United have so far been unable to bolster their summer transfer budget with any additional funds.
